## General Requirements
Before you begin, ensure your system meets these basic requirements:
- **Go:** Version 1.21 or later is required to build the application; the installer will auto-install it when missing.
- **FFmpeg:** Required for all video and audio processing. Our platform-specific guides cover how to install this.
- **Python + pip:** Required for AI tooling and optional modules; the installers will set this up automatically where possible.
- **Disk Space:** At least 2 GB of free disk space for the application and its dependencies.
- **Internet Connection:** Required for downloading dependencies during the build process.
