Install Spice.ai
Current Limitations
- Docker is required.
- Only macOS and Linux are natively supported. WSL 2 is required for Windows.
- arm64 is not yet supported (i.e. Apple’s M1 Macs). We use M1s ourselves, so we hope to support this very soon :-)
⭐️ We recommend using GitHub Codespaces to get started. Codespaces enables you to run Spice.ai in a virtual environment in the cloud. If you use Codespaces, the install is not required and you may skip to the Getting Started with Codespaces section.
Docker installation
To continue with Docker installation on your local machine, please follow these instructions.
Spice.ai CLI Installation (local machine)
Install the Spice CLI by running the following curl
command in your terminal.
curl https://install.spiceai.org | /bin/bash
You may need to restart your terminal for the spice
command to be added to your PATH.
Getting Started with Codespaces
Create a new GitHub Codespace in the spiceai/quickstarts
repo at github.com/spiceai/quickstarts/codespaces.

Once you open the Codespace, Spice.ai and everything you need to get started will already be installed.
Create your first Spice.ai pod and train it >>
