+# Build all Dendrite commands
+
+Dendrite has numerous utility commands in addition to the actual server binaries.
+Build them all from the root of the source repo with:
+
+```sh
+go build -o bin/ ./cmd/...
+```
+
+The resulting binaries will be placed in the `bin` subfolder.
+
+# Installing Dendrite
+
+You can install the Dendrite binary into `$GOPATH/bin` by using `go install`:
+
+```sh
+go install ./cmd/dendrite
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can specify a custom path for the binary to be written to using `go build`:
+
+```sh
+go build -o /usr/local/bin/ ./cmd/dendrite
+```
