## System Requirements
openpilot is developed and tested on **Ubuntu 24.04**, which is the primary development target aside from the [supported embedded hardware](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot#running-on-a-dedicated-device-in-a-car).
Most of openpilot should work natively on macOS. On Windows you can use WSL for a nearly native Ubuntu experience. Running natively on any other system is not currently recommended and will likely require modifications.
## Native setup on Ubuntu 24.04 and macOS
**1. Clone openpilot**
NOTE: This repository uses Git LFS for large files. Ensure you have [Git LFS](https://git-lfs.com/) installed and set up before cloning or working with it.
Either do a partial clone for faster download:
``` bash
git clone --filter=blob:none --recurse-submodules --also-filter-submodules https://github.com/commaai/openpilot.git
```
or do a full clone:
``` bash
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/commaai/openpilot.git
```
**2. Run the setup script**
``` bash
cd openpilot
tools/op.sh setup
```
**3. Git LFS**
``` bash
git lfs pull
```
**4. Activate a python shell**
Activate a shell with the Python dependencies installed:
``` bash
source .venv/bin/activate
```
**5. Build openpilot**
``` bash
scons -u -j$(nproc)
```
## WSL on Windows
[Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/about) should provide a similar experience to native Ubuntu. [WSL 2](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/compare-versions) specifically has been reported by several users to be a seamless experience.
Follow [these instructions](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install) to setup the WSL and install the `Ubuntu-24.04` distribution. Once your Ubuntu WSL environment is setup, follow the Linux setup instructions to finish setting up your environment. See [these instructions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps) for running GUI apps.
**NOTE**: If you are running WSL and any GUIs are failing (segfaulting or other strange issues) even after following the steps above, you may need to enable software rendering with `LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1`, e.g. `LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 selfdrive/ui/ui`.
