## Purpose
The goal of this project is to make the easiest, fastest, and most
painless way of setting up a self-hosted Git service.
Using Go, this can be done with an independent binary distribution across
**all platforms** which Go supports, including Linux, macOS, and Windows
on x86, amd64, ARM and PowerPC architectures.
Want to try it before doing anything else?
Do it [with the online demo](https://try.gitea.io/)!
This project has been
[forked](https://blog.gitea.io/2016/12/welcome-to-gitea/) from
[Gogs](https://gogs.io) since 2016.11 but changed a lot.
## Building
From the root of the source tree, run:
TAGS="bindata" make build
or if sqlite support is required:
TAGS="bindata sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" make build
The `build` target is split into two sub-targets:
- `make backend` which requires [Go 1.12](https://golang.org/dl/) or greater.
- `make frontend` which requires [Node.js 10.13](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) or greater.
If pre-built frontend files are present it is possible to only build the backend:
TAGS="bindata" make backend
