## Running StartOS
There are multiple ways to get started with StartOS:
### 💰 Buy a Start9 server
This is the most convenient option. Simply [buy a server](https://store.start9.com) from Start9 and plug it in.
### 👷 Build your own server
This option is easier than you might imagine, and there are 4 reasons why you might prefer it:
1. You already have hardware
1. You want to save on shipping costs
1. You prefer not to divulge your physical address
1. You just like building things
To pursue this option, follow one of our [DIY guides](https://start9.com/latest/diy).
