title: Execution layer (eth1)
---
While our core focus so far has been Ethereum 2 (consensus layer), we are now devoting significant resources to our Ethereum 1 client (execution layer).
## Quickstart
To run Nimbus in [Ethereum 1 mode](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1), first [install the prerequisites](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1#prerequisites).
Then run the following commands:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1
cd nimbus-eth1
make update
# >>> WINDOWS ONLY <<<
make fetch-dlls # WINDOWS ONLY
# >>> WINDOWS ONLY <<<
make nimbus
./build/nimbus
```
Nimbus will now run and attempt to synchronize with the Ethereum blockchain.
For a more complete overview see the [repository README](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1).
