= Look before you leap = Most [[TeX Distributions]] include an installation of ConTeXt already -- try running <tt>texexec --version</tt> to see if it's installed on your system. If it is not installed, there are two important considerations while considering ConTeXt installation. * Do you want a ConTeXt distribution or do you want a TeX distribution (plain TeX, LaTeX, ConTeXt, and lots of other goodies). * Do you want a stable version of ConTeXt, or do you want the bleeding edge version. Remember that ConTeXt gets updated frequently. If you are on a Linux system, there is also a third considerationCategory: * Do you want a distribution package, or do you want your own local TeX installation.
