| # Build Workstation |
| |
| Workstation (`workstation_eng`) is an open source reference design for Fuchsia. |
| Workstation is not a consumer-oriented product. Workstation is a tool for |
| developers and enthusiasts to explore Fuchsia and experiment with evolving |
| concepts and features. |
| |
| Workstation does not come with strong security, privacy, or robustness |
| guarantees. Bugs and rapid changes are expected – to help improve Fuchsia, |
| please [file bugs and send feedback][report-issue]. |
| |
| ## Get started with Workstation {#get-started-with-workstation} |
| |
| To get started with Workstation, you need to be familiar with how to get the |
| Fuchsia source code, build Fuchsia images, and run Fuchsia on a device or |
| emulator – the instructions in this section are based on the |
| [Get started with Fuchsia][get-started-with-fuchsia] flow. |
| |
| Workstation is designed to be used with an Intel NUC or the Fuchsia emulator |
| (FEMU). |
| |
| * {Intel NUC} |
| |
| To install Workstation on an Intel NUC, do the following: |
| |
| 1. Complete the [Download the Fuchsia source code][get-fuchsia-source] |
| guide. |
| 2. As part of [Configure and Build Fuchsia][build-fuchsia], set your build |
| configuration to use the following Workstation product: |
| |
| ```posix-terminal |
| fx set workstation_eng.x64 --release |
| ``` |
| |
| 3. Complete the [Install Fuchsia on a NUC][intel-nuc] guide. |
| |
| * {FEMU} |
| |
| To try Workstation on the Fuchsia emulator, do the following: |
| |
| 1. Complete the [Download the Fuchsia source code][get-fuchsia-source] |
| guide. |
| 2. As part of [Configure and Build Fuchsia][build-fuchsia], set your build |
| configuration to use the following Workstation product: |
| |
| ```posix-terminal |
| fx set workstation_eng.qemu-x64 --release |
| ``` |
| |
| 3. Complete the [Start the Fuchsia emulator][start-femu] guide. |
