# Installation

🐸TTS supports python >=3.9 <3.13.0 and was tested on Ubuntu 24.04, but should
also run on Mac and Windows.

## Using `pip`

`pip` is recommended if you want to use 🐸TTS only for inference.

You can install from PyPI as follows:

```bash
pip install coqui-tts  # from PyPI
```

Or install from Github:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/idiap/coqui-ai-TTS  # from Github
```

## Installing From Source

This is recommended for development and more control over 🐸TTS.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/idiap/coqui-ai-TTS
cd coqui-ai-TTS
make system-deps  # only on Linux systems.

# Install package and optional extras
make install

# Same as above + dev dependencies and pre-commit
make install_dev
```
