# NEURON
NEURON is a simulator for models of neurons and networks of neuron. See [http://neuron.yale.edu](http://neuron.yale.edu) for installers, source code, documentation, tutorials, announcements of
courses and conferences, and a discussion forum.
## Installing NEURON
NEURON provides binary installers for Linux, Mac and Windows platforms. You can find the latest
installers for Mac and Windows [here](https://neuron.yale.edu/ftp/neuron/versions/alpha/). For
Linux and Mac you can install the official Python 3 wheel with:
```
pip3 install neuron
```
If you want to build the latest version from source, we support **CMake** as build system. **Autotools** build system has been removed after 8.0 release.

It is possible to install the Linux Python wheels on Windows via the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - check the installation instructions above.
