| ## Build instructions for Linux using Docker
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Prepare folder
 | |
| 
 | |
| Choose a folder for the future build, for example **/home/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
 | |
| 
 | |
| Install [poetry](https://python-poetry.org), go to ***BuildPath*** and run
 | |
| 
 | |
|     git clone --recursive https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop.git
 | |
|     ./tdesktop/Telegram/build/prepare/linux.sh
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Building the project
 | |
| 
 | |
| Go to ***BuildPath*/tdesktop** and run (using [your **api_id** and **api_hash**](#obtain-your-api-credentials))
 | |
| 
 | |
|     docker run --rm -it \
 | |
|         -v $PWD:/usr/src/tdesktop \
 | |
|         tdesktop:centos_env \
 | |
|         /usr/src/tdesktop/Telegram/build/docker/centos_env/build.sh \
 | |
|         -D TDESKTOP_API_ID=YOUR_API_ID \
 | |
|         -D TDESKTOP_API_HASH=YOUR_API_HASH
 | |
| 
 | |
| Or, to create a debug build, run (also using [your **api_id** and **api_hash**](#obtain-your-api-credentials))
 | |
| 
 | |
|     docker run --rm -it \
 | |
|         -v $PWD:/usr/src/tdesktop \
 | |
|         -e DEBUG=1 \
 | |
|         tdesktop:centos_env \
 | |
|         /usr/src/tdesktop/Telegram/build/docker/centos_env/build.sh \
 | |
|         -D TDESKTOP_API_ID=YOUR_API_ID \
 | |
|         -D TDESKTOP_API_HASH=YOUR_API_HASH
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you need a backward compatible binary (running on older OS like the official one), you should build the binary with LTO.  
 | |
| To do this, add `-D CMAKE_INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION=ON` option.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The built files will be in the `out` directory.
