Get the path to the `turbo` binary.

```bash title="Terminal"
turbo bin
```

When using [**global `turbo`**](/docs/getting-started/installation#global-installation), this will be the path to the global binary, such as `~/.local/bin/turbo` on macOS/Linux or `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Turborepo\bin\turbo.exe` on Windows.

When using [**local `turbo`**](/docs/getting-started/installation#repository-installation), this will be the path to the local `turbo` binary. When `turbo` is installed in your repository, it is likely to be a path to `node_modules`.
