# Installing Vagrant
|
|
|
|
Installing Vagrant is extremely easy. Head over to the
|
|
[Vagrant downloads page](/downloads.html) and get the appropriate installer or
|
|
package for your platform. Install the package using standard procedures for
|
|
your operating system.
|
|
|
|
The installer will automatically add `vagrant` to your system path
|
|
so that it is available in terminals. If it is not found, please try
|
|
logging out and logging back in to your system (this is particularly
|
|
necessary sometimes for Windows).

<strong>Looking for the gem install?</strong> Vagrant 1.0.x had the option to
|
|
be installed as a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RubyGems">RubyGem</a>.
|
|
This installation method is no longer supported. If you have an old version
|
|
of Vagrant installed via Rubygems, please remove it prior to installing newer
|
|
versions of Vagrant.

<strong>Beware of system package managers!</strong> Some operating system
|
|
distributions include a vagrant package in their upstream package repos.
|
|
Please do not install Vagrant in this manner. Typically these packages are
|
|
missing dependencies or include very outdated versions of Vagrant. If you
|
|
install via your system's package manager, it is very likely that you will
|
|
experience issues. Please use the official installers on the downloads page.
