### Mac OS X Yosemite
If Xcode is not already installed, it can be installed via the Mac App Store (will take several minutes). XCode includes "Clang", "git" and other build tools. Once Xcode is installed, you'll then need to install "xcode-select" via running in a terminal and following the prompts:
```bash
xcode-select --install
```
If "Homebrew" is not yet installed, it's needed to install "autoconf" and others. You can install it using the script at http://brew.sh and following the directions at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/share/doc/homebrew/Installation.md And then run in a terminal:
```bash
brew install autoconf automake libtool openssl pkg-config
```
If Node.js v0.12 and associated commands "node", "npm" and "nvm" are not already installed, you can use "nvm" by running the script at https://github.com/creationix/nvm#install-script And then run this command to install Node.js v0.12
```bash
nvm install v0.12
```
Clone the bitcore-node repository locally:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/bitpay/bitcore-node.git
cd bitcore-node

A script in the "bin" directory will download Bitcoin Core v0.11, apply a shared library patch (see more info below), and compile the shared library and Node.js bindings, and then copy built artifacts and header files into `platform/osx`. You can start this by running:
```bash
npm install
