# Tailscale\n\nhttps://tailscale.com\n\nPrivate WireGuard® networks made easy\n\n## Overview\n\nThis repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code.\nNotably, it includes the `tailscaled` daemon and\nthe `tailscale` CLI tool. The `tailscaled` daemon runs on Linux, Windows,\n[macOS](https://tailscale.com/kb/1065/macos-variants/), and to varying degrees\non FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's\ncode, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.\n\nOther [Tailscale repos](https://github.com/orgs/tailscale/repositories) of note:\n\n* the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android\n* the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology\n* the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg\n* the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey\n\nFor background on which parts of Tailscale are open source and why,\nsee [https://tailscale.com/opensource/](https://tailscale.com/opensource/).\n\n## Using\n\nWe serve packages for a variety of distros and platforms at\n[https://pkgs.tailscale.com](https://pkgs.tailscale.com/).\n\n## Other clients\n\nThe [macOS, iOS, and Windows clients](https://tailscale.com/download)\nuse the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI\nwrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves\nnot open source.\n\n## Building\n\nWe always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.26. (While we build\nreleases with our [Go fork](https://github.com/tailscale/go/), its use is not\nrequired.)\n\n```\ngo install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}\n```\n\nIf you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use `build_dist.sh`\ninstead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:\n\n```\n./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale\n./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled\n```\n\nIf your distro has conventions that preclude the use of\n`build_dist.sh`, please do the
