re-add Linux 32bit link
__NOTOC__
Since April 2019, there is a new implementation of ConTeXt, named '''ConTeXt [[LMTX]]'''. It is tuned for LuaMetaTeX, the lean and mean successor of LuaTeX TeX engine (see [https://tug.org/TUGboat/tb40-1/tb124hagen-lmtx.pdf article]).

= 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.#2Update the PATH environment variable. Installation # Generate cache# 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:
# Create a directory for, e.g. datamkdir $HOME/context# Go there and download the relevant zip for your plateform (see aside)cd $HOME/context# Unpack the zip, some files will appear# Execute the install program, which will take care of downloading the distributionwget https:#* WINDOWS: <code>install//lmtx.pragma-ade.bat<com/code>#* UNIX: <code>install-lmtx/context-linux-64.sh</code> (set the executable permissions)zip# Add ConTeXt to your system PATH :#* WINDOWS: run <code>setpathunzip context-linux-64.bat</code>zip#* UNIX: use the PATH instructions provided at the end of <code>sh install.sh</code> with:::: Bash shell <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc</code>::: Sh/Ksh shell <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.profile</code>::: Tcsh/csh shell <code>echo 'set path = ($path ...thepathinstructions...)' >> ~/.cshrc</code>
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= #3. First Run ! ..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>
Then generate the cache with <code>mtxrun --generate</code>.== MacOS = #4. Easy update =
* MacOS versions from Catalina (10.15) and newer use '''Zsh''' by default.
* MacOS versions before Catalina use '''Bash''' by default.
= Official installation page = Windows ==
# Create a directory for ConTeXt, such as `C:\context`.
# Download the architecture-specific version into the ConTeXt directory.
# Extract the archive.
# Run: <code>install.bat</code>
# Run: <code>setpath.bat</code>
Installation is complete.
= First Run =
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 to upgrade, which will update the distribution incrementally:
* Windows: <code>install.bat</code>
* Unix: <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]].

* Pragma ADE also provides the '''[http://www.pragma-ade.nl/download-1.htm ConTeXt MkIV distribution]''' (version MkIV is the predecessor of LMTX) for which there are also [[ConTeXt_Standalone|detailed installation instructions]].
