Now it comes free with every installation of TensorFlow!

But, you should know that there are many alternative high-level APIs that may have more intuitive interfaces. If interested, refer to Keras (https://keras.io/), tf.slim (included with TF), to learn more about TensorFlow-Slim refer to https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tree/master/tensorflow/contrib/slim or TFLearn (http://tflearn.org/).
