GnuCash runs under Windows, MacOS, and many flavors of Linux/Unix. Installation is generally quite easy; instructions specific to different supported operating systems are given below.

If you need to use a version of GnuCash more up to date than the version available from your operating system or distribution's repositories and software sources, you can build GnuCash from source code. Links to instructions for building from the sources are provided on the appropriate OS/distribution installation pages. If specific instructions are not yet available for your system, you may consider adapting available instructions from a similar OS/distribution.

Linux

You can check distrowatch.com for distributions which include

the recent,
an almost recent or also
older versions of GnuCash.

Notes on specific distributions:

Distribution agnostic recent stable versions of GnuCash can now be installed, too:

Windows

Download the binary installer package from sourceforge.net. See Microsoft Windows for more information.

Download the binary package from sourceforge.net. Once you have downloaded the disk image, double click to open it, and then drag the app icon into your Applications folder (or anywhere else on your system that you choose).
