<p><p>For additional help, in addition to this site, there are three sources:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://gitter.im/balloob/home-assistant" target="_blank">Gitter Chatroom</a> for general Home Assistant discussions and questions.</li>
<li><a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/home-assistant-dev" target="_blank">Development Mailing List</a> for development related questions and discussing new features.</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/balloob/home-assistant" target="_blank">GitHub Page</a> for issue reporting.</li>
</ul>
</p></p>
<p><h3>Staying Up to Date</h3>
<p>In order to update Home Assistant to the latest stable release, simply type the following into a console:</p>
<figure class='code'><figcaption><span></span></figcaption><div class="highlight"><table><tr><td class="gutter"><pre class="line-numbers"><span class='line-number'>1</span>

</span></code></pre></td></tr></table></div></figure>
<p>If you would like to stay up to date with the newest unstable builds (alphas, betas, and release candidates), use this command:</p>
<figure class='code'><figcaption><span></span></figcaption><div class="highlight"><table><tr><td class="gutter"><pre class="line-numbers"><span class='line-number'>1</span>
</pre></td><td class='code'><pre><code class='bash'><span class='line'>pip3 install <span class="se">--</span>upgrade <span class="se">--</span>pre homeassistant
</span></code></pre></td></tr></table></div></figure></p>
<p>It will be up and running on port 8123</p>
<p><h3>What&rsquo;s Next</h3>
<p>If you want to see what Home Assistant can do, you can start the demo mode by running <code>hass --demo-mode</code>. Home Assistant has a few other command line flags that can be displayed by running <code>hass --help</code>.</p>
<p>From here you may now start configuring Home Assistant to your liking. For more advanced users, the <a href='/getting-started/advanced.html'>advanced configuration page</a> contains brief tutorials on creating more advanced installations.</p></p>
<p>In the future, if you want to update to the latest version, run <code>pip3 install --upgrade home-assistant</code>.</p>
