Postgresql 中文操作指南

Chapter 16. Installation from Binaries

PostgreSQL 目前以二进制软件包的形式在大多数常见操作系统上提供。如果软件包可用，建议系统用户采用这种方式安装 PostgreSQL。仅建议 PostgreSQL 或扩展程序的开发者从源代码进行构建（参见 Chapter 17 ）。

PostgreSQL is available in the form of binary packages for most common operating systems today. When available, this is the recommended way to install PostgreSQL for users of the system. Building from source (see Chapter 17) is only recommended for people developing PostgreSQL or extensions.

如需获取提供二进制软件包的平台的最新列表，请访问 https://www.postgresql.org/download/ 上的 PostgreSQL 网站的下载小节，并按照特定平台的说明进行操作。
