= Installation =
The general steps to install ConTeXt LMTX are as follows:
 
# Create a directory for ConTeXt.
# Download the platform-specific archive file into the ConTeXt directory.
# Unpack the archive.
# Execute the install program, which downloads the distribution.
# Update the PATH environment variable.
# Optionally, delete the archive file.
 
See the next sections for instructions specific to various platforms.
 
== Unix ==
 
The steps in this section show how to download and install ConTeXt for a 64-bit Linux system. Change the archive file download link as needed for your target platform. Open a new terminal then run the following commands:
 
# mkdir $HOME/context
# cd $HOME/context
# wget http://lmtx.pragma-ade.nl/install-lmtx/context-linux-64.zip
# unzip context-linux-64.zip
# sh install.sh
 
Update the PATH environment variable by using the path instructions displayed when the install program finishes. The instructions will vary depending on the type of shell being used:
 
* '''Bash''': <code>echo 'export PATH=...instructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc</code>
* '''Zsh''': <code>echo 'export PATH=...instructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.zshenv</code>
* '''Sh'''/'''Ksh''': <code>echo 'export PATH=...instructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.profile</code>
* '''Tcsh'''/'''csh''': <code>echo 'set path = ($path ...instructions...)' >> ~/.cshrc</code>
 
For example, if ConTeXt was downloaded into `$HOME/context` on a system running bash, then the following line would update the PATH environment variable:
 
<code>echo 'export PATH=$HOME/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc</code>
 
== MacOS ==
 
The instructions for MacOS are the same as for Unix, but note that:
# Create a directory for, e.g. data/context# Go there and download the relevant zip for your plateform * MacOS versions from Catalina (see above)# Unpack the zip, some files will appear# Execute the install program, which will take care of downloading the distribution:#* WINDOWS: <code>install10.bat</code>#* MAC/UNIX: <code>sh install.sh</code># Add ConTeXt to your system PATH :#* WINDOWS: #** run <code>setpath.bat</code>#* MAC:#** Bash shell (pre-catalina15) <code>echo and newer use ''export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc</code>#** Zsh shell (Catalina) <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/' by default.zshenv</code>#* UNIX: MacOS versions before Catalina use the PATH instructions provided at the end of <code>install.sh</code> with:#** Bash shell <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc</code>#** Zsh shell <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATHBash' >> ~/.zshenv</code>#** Sh/Ksh shell <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.profile</code>#** Tcsh/csh shell <code>echo 'set path = ($path ...thepathinstructions...)' >> ~/by default.cshrc</code>
= First Run ! = Windows ==
* Download Complete the tex input file [[Mediafollowing steps to set up ConTeXt on Windows:Hello-world.tex|Hello-World.tex]] from our [[Detailed_Example|Detailed example]]* Run <code>context Hello-world.tex</code> in your shell* Check the pdf output <code>Hello-world.pdf</code>.
You can also follow our two steps tutorial# Create a directory for ConTeXt, such as `C:\context`.# Download the architecture-specific version into the ConTeXt directory.# Extract the archive.* [[First Document| Your 1st document]]# Run: <code>install.bat</code>* and a more [[Detailed Example|Detailed example]]# Run: <code>setpath.bat</code>
Moreover, a page Installation is used to centralized [[Sample documents]]complete.

For an update, just replay This section describes how to run ConTeXt to transform your first TeX document into a PDF. # Download the tex input file [[Media:Hello-world.tex|Hello-World.tex]] from our [[Detailed_Example|Detailed example]].# Run <code>context Hello-world.tex</code> in your terminal (or command prompt).# Check the PDF output <code>Hello-world.pdf</code>. Additional tutorials include: * [[First Document| Your first document]]* [[Detailed Example|Detailed example]] See the [[Sample documents]] page for even more examples. = Upgrade = Re-run the install program: it also take care of updating to upgrade, which will update the distribution incrementally: * WINDOWSWindows: <code>install.bat</code>* UNIXUnix: <code>sh install.sh</code> = Running MkIV = The new distribution has all the files to run the previous version of ConTeXt. * Run <code>context --luatex Hello-world.tex</code> to use the `luatex` binary and [[MkIV]].
