## [**Official site**](https://kapitan.dev) <https://kapitan.dev>
## [**Quick Start**](https://kapitan.dev/getting_started/#quickstart)
## Install Kapitan
### Docker (recommended)
```shell
docker run -t --rm -v $(pwd):/src:delegated kapicorp/kapitan -h
```
On Linux you can add `-u $(id -u)` to `docker run` to preserve file permissions.
### Pip
Kapitan needs Python 3.7.
#### Install Python 3.7
* Linux: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y python3.7-dev python3-pip python3-yaml git`
* Mac: `brew install python3 libyaml git libmagic`
#### Install Kapitan
User (`$HOME/.local/lib/python3.7/bin` on Linux or `$HOME/Library/Python/3.7/bin` on macOS):
```shell
pip3 install --user --upgrade kapitan
```
System-wide (not recommended):
```shell
sudo pip3 install --upgrade kapitan
```
## Build Kapitan
### Docker
To build a docker image for the architecture of your machine, run `docker build . -t you-kapitan-image`, and to build for a specific platform, add `--platform linux/arm64`.
To build a multi-platform image (as the CI does), follow [the docker multi-platform documentation](https://docs.docker.com/build/building/multi-platform/).
