The Tango install process is a bit different from many third-party libraries because Tango actually contains a complete D runtime environment. Rest assured that the process is relatively straightforward and nothing will be done that cannot be undone:

 * [wiki:ManualWindowsInstall Installing with DMD on Windows]
 * [wiki:ManualFreeBSDInstall Installing with DMD on FreeBSD]
 * [wiki:ManualLinuxInstall Installing with DMD on Linux]
 * [wiki:ManualMacOSXInstall Installing with DMD on Mac OS X]
 * There are [wiki:CommunityDownloads packages for various (GNU/)Linux flavours and Mac OS X] available.

Note: as of November 10th 2009, Tango's repository structure changed along with the [wiki:CombineBuildInstructions build] tools. Those changes are reflected in the above links
