## Installing Selfie

Selfie runs in the cloud and natively on Linux, macOS, and Windows machines and possibly other systems that have a terminal and a C compiler installed. However, even if there is no C compiler installed on your machine or you only have access to a web browser you can still run selfie.
Selfie runs natively on Linux, macOS, and Windows machines and possibly other systems that have a terminal and a C compiler installed. However, even without a C compiler installed on your machine, or if you only have access to a web browser you can run selfie. There are at least three ways to install and run selfie:

There are at least three ways to install and run selfie, from real simple to a bit more difficult:
1. Natively on your machine (recommended): download and unzip [selfie](https://github.com/cksystemsteaching/selfie/archive/main.zip). Then, open a terminal to run selfie, see further below. For this to work, you need to have a C compiler installed on your machine. We recommend using [clang](https://clang.llvm.org) or [gcc](https://gcc.gnu.org) (with [cygwin](https://www.cygwin.com) on Windows).

1. In the cloud: if you only have access to a web browser, just click [here](https://replit.com/new/github/cksystemsteaching/selfie). Alternatively, create a [github](https://github.com) account, unless you already have one, and fork [selfie](https://github.com/cksystemsteaching/selfie) into your github account. Then, create a [cloud9](https://c9.io) student account, connect it to your github account, verify your email address and set a password (important!), and finally clone your fork of selfie into a new cloud9 workspace.
2. In docker on your machine (advanced): download and install [docker](https://docker.com). Then, open a terminal and type `docker run -it cksystemsteaching/selfie`. The advantage of using docker is that you can run selfie out of the box on your machine without installing any tools such as a C compiler. All necessary and even optional tools are pre-installed in the [selfie docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/cksystemsteaching/selfie). However, you need to know how to use docker.

2. In docker on your machine: if you have access to a Linux, macOS, or Windows machine download and install [docker](https://docker.com). Then, open a terminal window and type `docker run -it cksystemsteaching/selfie`. Besides simplicity, the key advantage of using docker is that you can run selfie out of the box on your machine but also on QEMU as well as on spike. Both emulators and the SMT solver boolector are pre-installed in the [selfie docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/cksystemsteaching/selfie).

3. Natively on your machine: instead of using docker, you may also just download and unzip [selfie](https://github.com/cksystemsteaching/selfie/archive/main.zip), and then open a terminal window to run selfie natively on your machine. However, for this to work you need to have a C compiler installed on your machine. We recommend using [clang](https://clang.llvm.org) or [gcc](https://gcc.gnu.org) (with [cygwin](https://www.cygwin.com) on Windows).
1. In the cloud (easy but requires Internet connectivity): if you only have access to a web browser, just click [here](https://replit.com/new/github/cksystemsteaching/selfie). Alternatively, create a [github](https://github.com) account, unless you already have one, and fork [selfie](https://github.com/cksystemsteaching/selfie) into your github account. Then, create a [cloud9](https://c9.io) student account, connect it to your github account, verify your email address and set a password (important!), and finally clone your fork of selfie into a new cloud9 workspace.

At this point we assume that you have a system that supports running selfie. Below we use the `make` command assuming it is installed on your system which is usually the case. However, we also show the command invoked by `make` so that you can always invoke that command manually if your system does not have `make` installed.
