## OS Requirements
BigchainDB Server requires Python 3.4+ and Python 3.4+ [will run on any modern OS](https://docs.python.org/3.4/using/index.html), but we recommend using an LTS version of [Ubuntu Server](https://www.ubuntu.com/server) or a similarly server-grade Linux distribution.

_Don't use macOS_ (formerly OS X, formerly Mac OS X), because it's not a server-grade operating system. Also, BigchaindB Server uses the Python multiprocessing package and [some functionality in the multiprocessing package doesn't work on Mac OS X](https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.Queue.qsize).
