==============
**Authors**:

Depending on your needs and your working environment, there are a few different
methods for installing TVM. These include:
* Installing from source
* Installing from third-party binary package.

# Installing From Source
# ----------------------
# Installing from source is the recommended method for installing TVM. It will
# allow you to enable specific features such as GPU support, microcontroller
# support (microTVM), and a debugging runtime, and other features. You will also
# want to install from source if you want to actively contribute to the TVM
# project. The full instructions are on the :ref:`Install TVM From Source
# ` page.

# Installing From Binary Packages
# --------------------------------
# You may install convenient third party binary package distributions to
# quickly try things out. TLCPack is a third party volunteer community that
# builds binary packages from TVM source. It offers a support matrix with
# instructions to install on different platforms, with different features.
# Check out `TLCPack `_ to learn more. Note that the
# third party binary packages could contain additional licensing terms for
# the hardware drivers that are bundled with it.
