## Installation

1. Get and install preCICE. For Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble Numbat), this is pretty easy: [download](https://github.com/precice/precice/releases/latest) and install our binary package by clicking on it or using the following commands:
For this tutorial, we will mainly need to install preCICE, OpenFOAM, and the OpenFOAM-preCICE adapter. In many parts of the preCICE documentation, we assume a Linux system (most commonly a recent Ubuntu LTS). If you are on Windows, [Ubuntu on Windows (WSL)](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/ubuntu/9nblggh4msv6) works. If you are on macOS or a Linux distribution other than Ubuntu, then [Homebrew](https://precice.org/installation-packages.html#macos) is the way to go (both for preCICE and for [OpenFOAM](https://github.com/gerlero/homebrew-openfoam)).

1. Get and install preCICE. For Ubuntu 26.04 (Resolute Raccoon), this is pretty easy: [download](https://github.com/precice/precice/releases/latest) and install our binary package by clicking on it or using the following commands:

```bash
wget https://github.com/precice/precice/releases/download/v3.3.1/libprecice3_3.3.1_noble.deb
sudo apt install ./libprecice3_3.3.1_noble.deb
wget https://github.com/precice/precice/releases/download/v3.4.1/libprecice3_3.4.1_resolute.deb
sudo apt install ./libprecice3_3.4.1_resolute.deb
```
