The general steps to install ConTeXt LMTX are as follows: # Create a download directory (efor ConTeXt.g., downloads/context)# Download the relevant platform-specific archive for your platform file into the download ConTeXt directory (see above).# Unpack the archive, some files will appear.# Execute the install program, which will take care of downloading downloads the distribution.# Update the PATH environment variable.# Generate cache# Optionally, delete the archive file. See the next sections for instructions specific to various platforms. == GNU/Linux == 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: #* WINDOWS: <code>install.batmkdir $HOME/context</code> and <code>cd $HOME/context</code>#* UNIX/MAC: <code>sh wget https://lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx/context-linux-64.shzip</code># Add ConTeXt to your system PATH:#* WINDOWS: #** run <code>setpathunzip context-linux-64.batzip</code>#* UNIX: use the PATH instructions provided at the end of <code>sh install.sh</code> with# Update the PATH environment variable by using the path instructions displayed when the install program finishes. The instructions will vary depending on the type of shell being used:#** <kbd>'''Bash shell : '''</kbd> <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructionsinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc</code>#** <kbd>'''Zsh shell : '''</kbd> <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructionsinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.zshenv</code>#** <kbd>'''Sh/Ksh shell : '''</kbd> <code>echo 'export PATH=...thepathinstructionsinstructions...:$PATH' >> ~/.profile</code>#** <kbd>'''Tcsh/csh shell :'''</kbd> <code>echo 'set path = ($path ...thepathinstructionsinstructions...)' >> ~/.cshrc</code>#* MACFor example, if ConTeXt was downloaded into `$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>#** Same Then generate the cache with <code>mtxrun --generate</code>.# <code>rm context-linux-64.zip</code> == macOS == The instructions for MacOS are the same as for UNIX. Unix, but note that: * MacOS versions from Catalina (10.15) defaults and newer use '''Zsh''' by default.* MacOS versions before Catalina use '''Bash''' by default.* You might need to `Zsh`de-quarantine the binaries (and sometimes every created PDF):** <code>sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine bin/mtxrun</code>** <code>sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/*</code> == Windows == Complete the following steps to set up ConTeXt on Windows: # Create a directory for ConTeXt, such as <code>C:\context</code>.# Download the architecture-specific version into the ConTeXt directory.# Extract the archive.# Run: <code>install.bat</code># Run: <code>setpath.bat</code># Then generate the cache with the command <code>mtxrun --generate</code> in a command prompt.# Delete the file archive file context-*win*.zip. = Check the installation = Make sure that ConTeXt is installed on your system. To check that, go to the command prompt and type  context --version You should get an output as follows:  mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.06 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /home/myuser/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2024.04.01 08:59 mtx-context | main context file: /home/myuser/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/context.mkxl mtx-context | current version: 2024.04.01 08:59 = Upgrade = Re-run the install program to upgrade, which will update the distribution incrementally: * Windows: <code>install.bat</code>* GNU/Linux or macOS: <code>sh install.sh</code> = First document = == Creation of a first ConTeXt file == Open a [[Text Editors|text editor]], type the following content, earlier versions defaulted and save the file as <code>doc01.tex</code>: <texcode>\setuppapersize[A6]\starttext\startsection[title={Testing ConTeXt}]This is my first ConTeXt document.\stopsection\stoptext</texcode> == Compilation of the ConTeXt file to PDF file == Go to `Bash`the command-line and type: <pre>context doc01</pre>

= Easy update = Viewing the generated PDF file ==

For an update, just replay Open the install program: it also take care of updating the distribution incrementally:* WINDOWS: generated <codett>installdoc01.batpdf</codett>* UNIXPDF file using a [http: <code>sh install//en.wikipedia.sh<org/wiki/code>List_of_PDF_software#Viewers PDF viewer]. It should look as follows:

<context force= Running MkIV "yes">\setuppapersize[A6]\starttext\startsection[title={Testing ConTeXt}]This is my first ConTeXt document.\stopsection\stoptext</context>

The new distribution still Note that the section has all been numbered, the files to run section number and the previous version of ConTeXt. * Run <code>context --luatex Hello-world.tex</code> section title appear in your shell to revert back to the `luatex` binary and [[MkIV]]a slightly larger fonts.

= Further Your installation instructions =is now up and running: you can start working on the [[Tutorials]].
