### Requirements
These are the general requirements of SubServers apps for most platforms.<br>
Machines running SubServers apps should be up to these standards.
## System Requirements
These are the general requirements for running SubServers apps on popular platforms.
__Windows__:
### Requirements for Windows systems
* [Java Development Kit 8+](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html)
* [Git for Windows](https://gitforwindows.org/)
Java can be a bit of a tough cookie to install on windows systems:
__Java doesn't install itself correctly on Windows.__ If you're having trouble, make sure your system doesn't have the following issues:
> If you are running a 64-bit system and download from *java.com*, you will receive 32-bit java, which will cause you problems down the line. You can verify this easily by running `/sub version` and checking that the value in [brackets] matches for both Windows and Java. If it does not, download the right one for your system from *oracle.com* directly.
> Java does not make all the development commands accessible in the command prompt like on other platforms for some reason. As such, commands like `jar`, that are used by the SubServers Library Patcher, will fail to work properly. To correct this issue, follow [this instructional video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpOTVwETq74) on how to add the missing commands to your system's PATH variable.
__MacOS/Linux__:
### Requirements for MacOS and Linux based systems
* [Java Development Kit 8+](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html)
* The following additional commands need to be available in the command line:
* `curl` or `wget`
