+build hosts (see :ref:`searxng.sh`).

+Build and Development tools
+===========================
+
+To Install tools used by build and development tasks in once:
+
+.. tabs::
+
+  .. group-tab:: SearXNG's development tools
+
+     .. code:: sh
+
+        $ sudo -H ./utils/searxng.sh install buildhost
+
+This will install packages needed by SearXNG:
+
+.. kernel-include:: $DOCS_BUILD/includes/searxng.rst
+   :start-after: START distro-packages
+   :end-before: END distro-packages
+
+and packages needed to build documentation and run tests:
+
+.. kernel-include:: $DOCS_BUILD/includes/searxng.rst
+   :start-after: START build-packages
+   :end-before: END build-packages

+Build docs
+==========
+
+.. _Graphviz: https://graphviz.gitlab.io
+.. _ImageMagick: https://www.imagemagick.org
+.. _XeTeX: https://tug.org/xetex/
+.. _dvisvgm: https://dvisvgm.de/
+
+.. sidebar:: Sphinx build needs
+
+   - ImageMagick_
+   - Graphviz_
+   - XeTeX_
+   - dvisvgm_
+
+Most of the sphinx requirements are installed from :origin:`setup.py` and the
+docs can be build from scratch with ``make docs.html``.  For better math and
+image processing additional packages are needed.  The XeTeX_ needed not only for
+PDF creation, it's also needed for :ref:`math` when HTML output is build.
+
+To be able to do :ref:`sphinx:math-support` without CDNs, the math are rendered
+as images (``sphinx.ext.imgmath`` extension).
+
+Here is the extract from the :origin:`docs/conf.py` file, setting math renderer
+to ``imgmath``:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../conf.py
+   :language: python
+   :start-after: # sphinx.ext.imgmath setup
+   :end-before: # sphinx.ext.imgmath setup END
+
+If your docs build (``make docs.html``) shows warnings like this::
+
+   WARNING: dot(1) not found, for better output quality install \
+            graphviz from https://www.graphviz.org
+   ..
+   WARNING: LaTeX command 'latex' cannot be run (needed for math \
+            display), check the imgmath_latex setting
+
+you need to install additional packages on your build host, to get better HTML
+output (:ref:`install buildhost <searxng.sh install buildhost>`).
+
+.. tabs::
+
+   .. group-tab:: Ubuntu / debian
+
+      .. code-block:: sh
+
+         $ sudo apt install graphviz imagemagick texlive-xetex librsvg2-bin

+
+         $ sudo dnf install graphviz graphviz-gd ImageMagick texlive-xetex-bin librsvg2-tools

+
+For PDF output you also need:
