-This tutorial explains how to compile and install AzerothCore in your host system.
-
-Alternatively, it is also possible to [use AzerothCore with Docker](https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/wiki/install-with-Docker).
-
-For macOS users: the build on mac is currently broken (see [this issue](https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/issues/122)), but you can still use AzerothCore on macOS with Docker.
-
-## 1) Installing the requirements
-
-Make sure your system fits with the [Requirements](Requirements).
-
-
-## 2) Getting the source files
-
-Choose one of the following method:
-
-
-```
-1) Clone only the master branch + full history (smaller size - recommended):
-git clone https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk.git --branch master --single-branch azerothcore
-
-2) Clone only the master branch + no previous history (smallest size):
-git clone https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk.git --branch master --single-branch azerothcore --depth 1
-
-3) Clone all branches and all history:
-git clone https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk.git azerothcore
-```
-
-Note: If you want to get the full history back, use `git fetch --unshallow` (if you chose option 2).
-
-
-## 3) Compiling
-
-### Compiling on GNU/Linux or Mac OS X
-
-```
-cd azerothcore
-mkdir build
-cd build
-```
-
-Before running the CMake command, replace `/home/youruser/azeroth-server/` with the path of the server installation (where you want to place the compiled binaries).
-
-**CMAKE OPTIONS**
-
-Check the options here if you know what you're doing: [CMake options](https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/wiki/Cmake-options)
-
-
-**CMake on Linux:**
-
-At this point, you must be in your "build/" directory.
-
-```
-cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/youruser/azeroth-server/ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang++ -DTOOLS=0 -DSCRIPTS=1
-```
-
-Then, replacing `4` with the number of threads that you want to execute, type:
-
-```
-make -j 4
-make install
-```
-
-**CMake on Mac OS X:**
-
-```
-cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/youruser/azeroth-server/ -DTOOLS=0 -DSCRIPTS=1 -DMYSQL_ADD_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/include -DMYSQL_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient_r.dylib -DREADLINE_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/opt/readline/include -DREADLINE_LIBRARY=/usr/local/opt/readline/lib/libreadline.dylib -DOPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/opt/openssl/include -DOPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARIES=/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.dylib -DOPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARIES=/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.dylib
-```
-
-Then, replacing `4` with the number of threads that you want to execute, type:
-
-```
-make -j 4
-make install
-```
-
-### Compiling on Windows
-
-Open CMake , press `Browse Source...` button and select the folder that you cloned earlier then press `Browse Build...` and select a folder where the CMake will generate the build files. Press the `Configure` button.
-
-CMake will ask you to select what compiler to use. For example you'll want to select `Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64` to compile x64 binaries using Visual Studio 2015. Do not change the `Use default native compilers` option. Press `Finish` and wait until CMake is done checking for requires files.
-
-Change `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` to the location where you will run your server from.
-Press `Configure` once again and then press `Generate`. If no error occurred you can close CMake.
-Go to the location where the build files have been generated and open AzerothCore.sln
-
-_Note: If MySQL is not found by CMake it is required to set MYSQL_INCLUDE_DIR = C:/mysql_libs/include and MYSQL_LIBRARY= C:/mysql_libs/lib_XX/libmysql.lib._
-_XX depends if you are compiling in 32 or 64 bits mode. ( See [[Windows Requirements article|Requirements#windows]] )_
-
-Press `BUILD` then select `Build solution` or press F6.
-Wait until the Build has been finished (It should take between 10-40 minutes depending on your hardware).
-
-You will find your freshly compiled binaries in the Build\bin\Release or Build\bin\Debug folder. These are all used to run your server at the end of this instruction.
-
-You will need the following files in order for the core to function properly:
-
-```
-libeay32.dll
-libmySQL.dll
-ssleay32.dll
-ace.dll
-worldserver.conf.dist
-worldserver.exe
-authserver.conf.dist
-authserver.exe
-```
-
-Copy `libeay32.dll` and `ssleay32.dll` from OpenSSL install folder into `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`.
-
-Copy `libmysql.dll` from your MYSQL_LIBRARY path into `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`
-
-
-**Note:** Do not use ARM architecture as azerothcore requires SSE2 and ARM doesn't support it.
-
-
-## 4) Setting the configuration files
-
-Inside the directory where you installed the binaries (e.g. `/home/youruser/azeroth-server/`), open the directory where configuration files has been installed ( `etc/` on linux ) , then:
-
-- copy the file `authserver.conf.dist` and rename it to `authserver.conf` ( DO NOT REMOVE THE .dist FILE )
-- copy the file `worldserver.conf.dist` and rename it to `worldserver.conf` ( DO NOT REMOVE THE .dist FILE )
-
-_Please Read [How to edit .conf files](how-to-work-with-conf-files.md) article to understand how configuration files work, and why you need the .dist file too_
-
-Open both `authserver.conf` and `worldserver.conf` files and go to the `MYSQL SETTINGS` section, then set the variables:
-
-```
-LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;your_password;auth"
-WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;your_password;world"
-CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;your_password;characters"
-```
-
-replacing `your_password` with the password of your MySQL server root user
-(the `authserver.conf` has the `LoginDatabaseInfo` variable only).
-
-In the worldserver.conf file, also set:
-
-`DataDir = "/home/youruser/azeroth-server/data"`
-
-replacing `/home/youruser/azeroth-server` with the path where you installed the binaries.
-
-
-## 5) Download the data files
-
-Go to the directory of your azeroth server (e.g. `/home/youruser/azeroth-server`) and create a new directory named `data`
-
-Two options to choose from:
-
-#### A) [[Extract Client Data]] from your own WOW client with AzerothCore extractors
-#### B) (Easier) Download directly from mega with the links below:
-
-- [From 03/01/19 to now](https://mega.nz/#F!Am4DBKCR!o9Qj_xFLfsg4sczqg0xq2A) (choose this version if you are installing AzerothCore for the first time)
-- [From 07/18/18 to 03/01/19](https://mega.nz/#!utg3hKJL!TtSzcWxVkvxF4HJvor8LFWhrBwwpH2pHpI-xHGr-HZo) (before commit [59d4e1d3a806a4f2f48f535be366bde1b24d737e](https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/commit/59d4e1d3a806a4f2f48f535be366bde1b24d737e))
-- For older versions, check out this page's history.
-
-
-
-Extract all the archives and place the extracted `dbc`, `maps`, `mmaps`, `vmaps` directories inside the data directory.
-
-
-## 6) Setting up the database
-
-### Base DB setup
-Follow these instructions: [Database Setup](Database-Setup).
-
-**Note**: by default, database names are configured to be named:
-
-- `acore_characters`
-- `acore_auth`
-- `acore_world`
-
- if, for some reasons, you decide to name them differently, remember to edit your `authserver.conf` and `worldserver.conf` accordingly.
-
-### Configure your auth.realmlist table
-
-In the `auth` database, you must fill the `realmlist` table with your connection info.
-It must correspond with your configuration file (for realmid, flag and realmzone).
-
- Address: 127.0.0.1 OR <Your LOCAL NETWORK ip> OR <Your PUBLIC NETWORK ip>
- Port : worldserver port
-
-
-## 7) Starting the servers
-
-### GNU/Linux and Mac OS X
-
-Open 2 terminal windows (or terminal tabs) and move to the `bin` directory of your azeroth server (for example `/home/youruser/azeroth-server/bin`),
-
-then in one window/tab type:
-
-`./authserver`
-
-in the other one:
-
-`./worldserver`
-
-
-### Windows
-
-Run `worldserver.exe` and `authserver.exe` from `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`.
-
-
-## 8) Connecting to the server
-
-Edit your `realmlist.wtf` and add the IP you set in the realmlist table (and the port if needed). Then you can connect with a newly made account or the test accounts (`test1` to `test10`, with password `a`)
