# Tailscale



https://tailscale.com



Private WireGuard® networks made easy



## Overview



This repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code.

Notably, it includes the `tailscaled` daemon and

the `tailscale` CLI tool. The `tailscaled` daemon runs on Linux, Windows,

[macOS](https://tailscale.com/kb/1065/macos-variants/), and to varying degrees

on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's

code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.



Other [Tailscale repos](https://github.com/orgs/tailscale/repositories) of note:



* the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android

* the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology

* the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg

* the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey



For background on which parts of Tailscale are open source and why,

see [https://tailscale.com/opensource/](https://tailscale.com/opensource/).



## Using



We serve packages for a variety of distros and platforms at

[https://pkgs.tailscale.com](https://pkgs.tailscale.com/).



## Other clients



The [macOS, iOS, and Windows clients](https://tailscale.com/download)

use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI

wrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves

not open source.



## Building



We always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.22. (While we build

releases with our [Go fork](https://github.com/tailscale/go/), its use is not

required.)



```

go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}

```



If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use `build_dist.sh`

instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:



```

./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale

./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled

```



If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of

`build_dist.sh`, please do the equivalent of what it does in your

distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.



## Bugs



Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on

[the issue tracker](https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/issues).



## Contributing



PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should [reference

bugs](https://docs.github.com/en/github/writing-on-github/autolinked-references-and-urls).



We require [Developer Certificate of

Origin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developer_Certificate_of_Origin)

`Signed-off-by` lines in commits.



See `git log` for our commit message style. It's basically the same as

[Go's style](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CommitMessage).
