__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]).

= #2. Installation =
The general steps to install ConTeXt LMTX are as follows:
# Create a directory for, e.gConTeXt. data/context# Go there and download Download the relevant zip for your plateform (see above)platform-specific archive file into the ConTeXt directory.# Unpack the zip, some files will appeararchive.# Execute the install program, which will take care of downloading downloads the distribution:#* WINDOWS: <code>install.bat</code>#* UNIX: <code>install.sh</code> (set Update the executable permissions)# Add ConTeXt to your system PATH :environment variable.#* WINDOWS: run <code>setpath.bat</code>Generate cache#* UNIX: use Optionally, delete the PATH instructions provided at the end of <code>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...)' >> ~/archive file.cshrc</code>
# mkdir $HOME/context
# cd $HOME/context
# wget https://lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx/context-linux-64.zip
# unzip context-linux-64.zip
# sh install.sh
Then generate the cache with
<code>mtxrun --generate</code>.
== MacOS ==
The instructions for MacOS are the same as for Unix, but note that:
* MacOS versions from Catalina (10.15) and newer use '''Zsh''' by default.
* MacOS versions before Catalina use '''Bash''' by default.
== Windows ==
Complete the following steps to set up ConTeXt on 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]].

* The official page '''[http://www.pragma-ade.nl/install.htm Installing ConTeXt LMTX ]''' is hosted by Pragma ADE.
* 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]].
