+Standalone bundle
+-----------------
+
+Maybe the quickest way of running Bitmask in your machine is using the standalone bundle. That is the recommended way to use Bitmask for the time being.
+
+You can get the latest bundles, and their matching signatures at `the downloads page <https://downloads.leap.se/client/>`_.
+
+Linux
+^^^^^
+- `Linux 32 bits bundle`_ (`signature <https://downloads.leap.se/client/linux/Bitmask-linux32-latest.tar.bz2.asc>`_)
+- `Linux 64 bits bundle`_ (`signature <https://downloads.leap.se/client/linux/Bitmask-linux64-latest.tar.bz2.asc>`_)

+OSX
+^^^
+- `OSX bundle`_ (`signature <https://downloads.leap.se/client/osx/Bitmask-OSX-latest.dmg.asc>`_)
+
+Windows
+^^^^^^^
.. note::
- The recommended way of installing in the near future will be the standalone bundles, but those are not quite ready yet. Methods described in this page assume you are familiar with python code, and you can find your way through the process of dependencies install. You can refer to the sections :ref:`setting up a working environment <environment>` or :ref:`fetching latest code for testing <fetchinglatest>`.
+ The release of the bundles for Windows is delayed right now. We should resume
+ producing them shortly, keep tuned.
+Signature verification

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

+.. image:: leap-color-small.*

The LEAP Provider Platform is the server-side part of LEAP that is run by service providers. It consists of a set of complementary packages and recipes to automate the maintenance of LEAP services in a hardened GNU/Linux environment. Our goal is to make it painless for service providers and ISPs to deploy a secure communications platform.
