## 4. Building from source
The simplest way to build the project is to run the `build/snapshot` make command.
This will use `goreleaser` to build out binaries and archives for the project.
Binaries are stored in the `dist/` folder.
Building from source has the following dependencies:
- Go v1.20
- Make
Alternatively, `go mod download` and `go build` can be used from the `src/` folder to build out the project.
This will download dependencies and build the project.
From there, simply run `make build`
This will download the necessary dependencies and build a `fail2ban_exporter` binary in the root of the project.
