# Building a Runnable Distribution
To create a Kyuubi distribution like those distributed by [Kyuubi Release Page](https://github.com/yaooqinn/kyuubi/releases),
and that is laid out so as to be runnable, use `./build/dist` in the project root directory.
For more information on usage, run `./build/dist --help`
```logtalk
./build/dist - Tool for making binary distributions of Kyuubi Server
Usage:
+------------------------------------------------------+
| ./build/dist [--name] [--tgz] |
+------------------------------------------------------+
name: - custom binary name, using project version if undefined
tgz: - whether to make a whole bundled package
```
For instance,
```bash
./build/dist --name custom-name --tgz
```
This results a Kyuubi distribution named `kyuubi-{version}-bin-custom-name-spark-3.0.1.tar.gz` for you.
