 ## Install Go
 `go-ipfs` is built on Golang and thus depends on it for all building methods.

 ## Minimal
-While it's possible to build `go-ipfs` with `go` alone, we'll be using `git` and `gx` for practical source management.  
-You can use whichever version of `git` you wish but we recommend the Windows builds at <https://git-scm.com>. `git` must be in your [`PATH`](https://ss64.com/nt/path.html) for `go get` to recognize and use it.
 
-### `gx`
-You may install prebuilt binaries for [`gx`](https://dist.ipfs.io/#gx) & [`gx-go`](https://dist.ipfs.io/#gx-go) if they're available for your platform.
-Alternatively, you can build them from source and install them to `%GOPATH%\bin` by running the following:
+While it's possible to build `go-ipfs` with `go` alone, we'll be using `git` to fetch the source.

 ```
-SET PATH=%PATH%;%GOPATH%\bin

-cd %GOPATH%/src/github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs
-gx --verbose install --global

 We need the `git` commit hash to be included in our build so that in the extremely rare event a bug is found, we have a reference point later for tracking it. We'll ask `git` for it and store it in a variable. The syntax for the next command is different depending on whether you're using the interactive command line or writing a batch file. Use the one that applies to you.  
 - interactive: `FOR /F %V IN ('git rev-parse --short HEAD') do set SHA=%V`  
 - interpreter: `FOR /F %%V IN ('git rev-parse --short HEAD') do set SHA=%%V`
