If you are on Debian/Ubuntu, please download the `.deb` package and install it.
```
sudo dpkg -i linux-deb-zecwallet-v0.6.7.deb
sudo apt install -f
```

tar -xvf zecwallet-v0.6.7.tar.gz
./zecwallet-v0.6.7/zecwallet

## zcashd
ZecWallet needs a Zcash node running zcashd. If you already have a zcashd node running, ZecWallet will connect to it.
If you don't have one, ZecWallet will start its embedded zcashd node.
If you don't have one, SilentDragon will start its embedded hushd node.
Additionally, if this is the first time you're running ZecWallet or a zcashd daemon, ZecWallet will download the zcash params (~1.7 GB) and configure `zcash.conf` for you.
Additionally, if this is the first time you're running SilentDragon or a hushd daemon, SilentDragon will download the zcash params (~1.7 GB) and configure `HUSH3.conf` for you.

## Compiling from source
ZecWallet is written in C++ 14, and can be compiled with g++/clang++/visual c++. It also depends on Qt5, which you can get from [here](https://www.qt.io/download). Note that if you are compiling from source, you won't get the embedded zcashd by default. You can either run an external zcashd, or compile zcashd as well.
