### Contribution
|
||||
|
||||
**You have a working Go environment**
|
||||
|
||||
Clone the project into your preferred path. We recommend just cloning into the GOPATH.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/netbirdio
|
||||
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/netbirdio
|
||||
git clone git@github.com:netbirdio/netbird.git
|
||||
cd netbird
|
||||
go build ./...
|
||||
```
|
||||
**_Sidenote_**
|
||||
_`libayatana-appindicator3-dev` might be needed for developing
|
||||
the client-ui [ui](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/tree/main/client/ui) on debian based distros._<br>
|
||||
|
||||
**_Sidenote_**
|
||||
_The command won't produce a binary, but only check for working builds.
|
||||
If you want to produce a binary, you need to `cd` into the specific subproject and use `go build`._
|
||||
|
||||
**To run the tests run**
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
go test -exec sudo ./...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The tests need to be executed with sudo permissions, as our integration tests need to create network interfaces.
