-
-Fluent Bit is supported for Linux on IBM Z (s390x) environments with some restrictions, but only container images are provided for these targets officially.
+
+# Download and install Fluent Bit
+
+
+
+Fluent Bit is compatible with most x86-based, x86_64-based, arm32v7-based, and arm64v8-based systems.
+
+## Requirements
+
+The Fluent Bit build process requires the following components:
+
+- Compiler: GCC or clang
+- CMake
+- Flex and Bison: Required for [Stream Processor](../stream-processing/overview) or [Record Accessor](../administration/configuring-fluent-bit/classic-mode/record-accessor)
+- Libyaml development headers and libraries
+
+Certain features of Fluent Bit depend on additional third-party components. For example, output plugins with special backend libraries like Kafka include those libraries in the main source code repository.
+
+## Build from source code
+
+You can [build and install Fluent Bit from its source code](../installation/downloads/source). There are also platform-specific guides for building Fluent Bit from source on [macOS](../installation/downloads/macos#compile-from-source) and [Windows](../installation/downloads/windows#compile-from-source).
+
+## Supported platforms and packages
+
+To install Fluent Bit from one of the available packages, use the installation method for your chosen platform.
+
+### Container deployment
+
+Fluent Bit is available for the following container deployments:
+

+
+Fluent Bit is available on [macOS](../installation/downloads/macos).
+
+### Windows
+
+Fluent Bit is available on [Windows](../installation/downloads/windows).
+
+### Other platforms

-# Requirements
-
-[Fluent Bit](http://fluentbit.io) has very low CPU and memory consumption. It's compatible with most x86-, x86_64-, arm32v7-, and arm64v8-based platforms.
-
-The build process requires the following components:
-
-- Compiler: GCC or clang
-- CMake
-- Flex and Bison: Required for [Stream Processor](https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/stream-processing/overview) or [Record Accessor](https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/administration/configuring-fluent-bit/classic-mode/record-accessor)
-- Libyaml development headers and libraries
-
-Core has no other dependencies. Some features depend on third-party components. For example, output plugins with special backend libraries like Kafka include those libraries in the main source code repository.
-
-Fluent Bit is supported on Linux on IBM Z(s390x), but the Wasm and Lua filter plugins aren't.
