## Get Started
Phalcon is written in [Zephir/C](https://zephir-lang.com/) with platform independence in mind.
As a result, Phalcon is available on Microsoft Windows, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD and MacOS.
You can either download a binary package for the system of your choice or build it from source.
**NOTE:** Phalcon requires the [PSR PHP extension](https://github.com/jbboehr/php-psr) to be installed and enabled.
### Windows
To install Phalcon on Windows:
1. Download [Phalcon for Windows](https://phalconphp.com/en/download/windows)
2. Extract the DLL file and copy it to your PHP extensions directory
3. Edit your **php.ini** file and add this line:
```ini
extension=php_phalcon.dll
```
4. Finally, restart your web server
**Hint:** To ensure that your Phalcon installation was successful, debug with
```php
```
and search for a section mentioning the Phalcon extension.
### Linux/Unix/Mac
On a Unix-based platform you can easily compile and install the extension from sources.
#### Requirements
Prerequisite packages are:
* PHP 7.2.x/7.3.x development resources
* `g++` >= 4.4 | `clang++` >= 3.x | `vc++` >= 11
* GNU `make` >= 3.81
* [`re2c`](http://re2c.org) >= 0.13
##### Ubuntu
```bash
# Use actual PHP development headers and tools here
sudo apt-get install php-dev libpcre3-dev gcc make re2c
```
##### Suse
```bash
# Use actual PHP development headers and tools here
sudo zypper install php7-devel gcc make re2c
```
##### CentOS/Fedora/RHEL
```bash
# Use actual PHP development headers and tools here
sudo yum install php-devel pcre-devel gcc make re2c
```
##### macOS
We recommend to use command line to build Phalcon extension suitable for your system.

## Compilation
Follow these instructions to generate a binary extension for your platform:
```bash
git clone git://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon.git
cd cphalcon/build
sudo ./install
```
If you have specific php versions running
```bash
git clone https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon
cd cphalcon/build
sudo ./install --phpize /usr/bin/phpize7.3 --php-config /usr/bin/php-config7.3
```
Add the extension to your **php.ini**:
```ini
extension=phalcon.so
```
Finally, **restart the web server**.
