+# Installation
+
+In the future, `std::offload` should become available in nightly builds for users. For now, everyone still needs to build rustc from source. 
+
+## Build instructions
+
+First you need to clone and configure the Rust repository:
+```bash
+git clone --depth=1 [email protected]:rust-lang/rust.git
+cd rust
+./configure --enable-llvm-link-shared --release-channel=nightly --enable-llvm-assertions --enable-offload --enable-clang --enable-lld --enable-option-checking --enable-ninja --disable-docs
+```
+
+Afterwards you can build rustc using:
+```bash
+./x.py build --stage 1 library
+```
+
+Afterwards rustc toolchain link will allow you to use it through cargo:
+```
+rustup toolchain link enzyme build/host/stage1
+rustup toolchain install nightly # enables -Z unstable-options
+```
+
+
+
+## Build instruction for LLVM itself
+```bash
+git clone --depth=1 [email protected]:llvm/llvm-project.git 
+cd llvm-project
+mkdir build
+cd build
+cmake -G Ninja ../llvm -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="host,AMDGPU,NVPTX" -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;lld" -DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES="offload,openmp" -DLLVM_ENABLE_PLUGINS=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=.
+ninja
+ninja install
+```
+This gives you a working LLVM build.
