| ## Build instructions for macOS
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Prepare folder
 | |
| 
 | |
| Choose a folder for the future build, for example **/Users/user/TBuild**. It will be named ***BuildPath*** in the rest of this document. All commands will be launched from Terminal.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Obtain your API credentials
 | |
| 
 | |
| You will require **api_id** and **api_hash** to access the Telegram API servers. To learn how to obtain them [click here][api_credentials].
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Clone source code and prepare libraries
 | |
| 
 | |
| Go to ***BuildPath*** and run
 | |
| 
 | |
|     ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
 | |
|     brew install git automake cmake wget pkg-config gnu-tar
 | |
| 
 | |
|     sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
 | |
| 
 | |
|     git clone --recursive https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop.git
 | |
|     ./tdesktop/Telegram/build/prepare/mac.sh
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Building the project
 | |
| 
 | |
| Go to ***BuildPath*/tdesktop/Telegram** and run (using [your **api_id** and **api_hash**](#obtain-your-api-credentials))
 | |
| 
 | |
|     ./configure.sh -D TDESKTOP_API_ID=YOUR_API_ID -D TDESKTOP_API_HASH=YOUR_API_HASH -D DESKTOP_APP_USE_PACKAGED=OFF
 | |
| 
 | |
| Then launch Xcode, open ***BuildPath*/tdesktop/out/Telegram.xcodeproj** and build for Debug / Release.
