# Building Old Faithful

Basic installation of faithful can be done by downloading the repository and building it (requires Golang >1.20):

```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/rpcpool/yellowstone-faithful.git
$ make
```

There are also binary builds for Linux available at <https://github.com/rpcpool/yellowstone-faithful/releases>.

### jsonParsed Support

If you want jsonParsed support in the RPC server, you will need to compile some additional Rust dependencies. \
