### Installation for Linux from source
## Linux Installation From Source
If you do not use Linux see previous section for a prebuilt wallet. There are two CureCoin Linux based clients that you can compile for yourself: one with a nice graphical interface, and one that operates entirely in the command-line. The first is highly recommended and is a good choice for most users, but expert users may prefer the command-line (headless) client instead. The GUI client is known as "curecoin-qt" and the headless client is called "curecoind". Installing either one or both is extremely simple. Just follow these directions:
