System Requirements

openpilot is developed and tested on Ubuntu 24.04, which is the primary development target aside from the supported embedded hardware.

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

Follow these instructions for a fully managed setup experience. If you'd like to manage the dependencies yourself, just read the setup scripts in this directory.

1. Clone openpilot

git clone https://github.com/commaai/openpilot.git

2. Run the setup script

cd openpilot
tools/op.sh setup

3. Activate a Python shell Activate a shell with the Python dependencies installed:

source .venv/bin/activate

4. Build openpilot

scons -u -j$(nproc)

WSL on Windows

Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) should provide a similar experience to native Ubuntu. WSL 2 specifically has been reported by several users to be a seamless experience.

Follow these instructions 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 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.
