# Getting Started
Make sure you have both [pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/) and at
least version 3.5 of Python before starting. Sanic uses the new `async`/`await`
syntax, so earlier versions of python won't work.
## 1. Install Sanic
```
python3 -m pip install sanic
```
## 2. Create a file called `main.py`
```python
from sanic import Sanic
from sanic.response import json
app = Sanic()
@app.route("/")
async def test(request):
return json({"hello": "world"})
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=8000)
```
## 3. Run the server
```
python3 main.py
```
## 4. Check your browser
Open the address `http://0.0.0.0:8000` in your web browser. You should see
the message *Hello world!*.
You now have a working Sanic server!
