We provide two methods for you to install the ArrayFire Library. You may either download pre-built installers or compile the library from source.
<h4>Binary Installers</h4>
Our installers are pre-built packages for Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux. Downloading our installers requires registration because most of our grant funding agencies require that we quantify our impact to the computing community annually. We will use your contact information to email you shortly after you download the library to see if you need any help and then again whenever there are new releases of the library.

Here are a few benefits of the installers:
<ul>
 	<li>Fastest installation method for Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms</li>
 	<li>Pre-configured with CPU, OpenCL, and CUDA backends</li>
 	<li>Forge Visualization library built-in</li>
 	<li>Includes Intel Math Kernel Library to accelerate CPU-bound tasks</li>
</ul>
