# Install with git clone

> Instruction on how to install G4F on your computer

<Steps titleSize="h3">
  <Step title="Install Python & git">
    G4F requires [`Python`](https://www.python.org/) to run. Ensure that you have Python installed on your system.
    You can check if you have `Python` installed by running the following command in your terminal:

    ```bash theme={null}
    user@mac-air:~$ python3 --version
    > Python 3.11.6
    ```

    Additionally, make sure you have `git` installed. You can check this by running:

    ```bash theme={null}
    user@mac-air:~$ git --version
    > git version 2.34.1
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Clone the G4F repository">
    You can clone the `g4f` repository using `git`:

    ```bash theme={null}
    git clone https://github.com/g4f/g4f.git
    ```

    This will create a local copy of the `g4f` repository on your machine.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install dependencies">
    Navigate into the cloned `g4f` directory and install the required dependencies:

    ```bash theme={null}
    cd g4f
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    ```

    This will install all the necessary packages for `g4f` to run.
