Yes, You need a source and to get a source you need a compiled server. But really... Its not so hard to compile. The most common mistake is that most people dont like to read and they just want the server as quickly as possible so they dont really take in the information that they read. But if you do take the time to read through guide carefully then it shouldnt really be a problem (Unless your computer is so old so that it doesnt meet the required specifications). And the best guide you can read in the guide on TrinityCore Wiki. Its always updated guide there. Even for someone like me who have compiled 9999 servers i still read the guide just because sometimes they update something so i always read the guide just to be sure
