 title: Installing pre-built binaries
 ---
 
-This installation method is not yet available. We will provide pre-built binaries
-that you can intall and run in a few seconds before the first official release.
+This installation method is only available for 64 bits Linux machines. Pre-built binairies
+for other platforms may come in the future.
+
+You will need to have `wget` installed for this method to work.
+
+To download and install the latest release, first define the following variables in your shell:
+
+- `PLUME_VERSION`: the Plume version to install. The latest is `0.3.0-alpha-2`.
+- `PLUME_DB`: the database backend to use. Either `postgres` or `sqlite`.
+
+Then run these commands:
+
+```bash
+# Create a directory to store executables (this is the standard place for Rust binaries)
+mkdir -p ~/.cargo/bin
+# Create a directory to store static files and database config
+mkdir Plume
+cd Plume
+
+# Download the files
+wget -O plume.tar.gz https://github.com/Plume-org/Plume/releases/download/$PLUME_VERSION/plume-$PLUME_DB.tar.gz
+# Extract them
+tar -xf plume.tar.gz
+mv bin/* ~/.cargo/bin/
+# Make sure they are executable
+chmod +x ~/.cargo/bin/*
+
+# Clean useless files
+rm plume.tar.gz
+rmdir bin
+
+# Add them to your path, so that you can run them (you may want to edit your ~/.bashrc too)
+PATH=$PATH:~/.cargo/bin/
+```
+
+To check that everything went well, you can run `plm --help`. It should show an help message.
+
+If everything is working, you can configure your instance.
