+# Installation instructions
+
+Zulip's REST API is easy to work with directly, but there are API
+libraries available for a few popular languages.
+
+The Python library is the most advanced (and has tools for easily
+writing interactive bots that react to messages), so we recommend it
+if you're trying to decide.
+
+{start_tabs}
+{tab|python}
+
+Install the Python API with [pip](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zulip/):
+
+```
+pip install zulip
+```
+
+{tab|zulip-send}
+
+Included with the Python bindings:
+
+```
+pip install zulip
+```
+
+{tab|js}
+
+Install the JavaScript API with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/zulip-js):
+
+```
+npm install zulip-js
+```
+
+{tab|curl}
+
+No download required!
+
