# Installation
## How to Install and Update Invoke Community Edition
To get started with Invoke, [Download the Installer](https://www.invoke.com/downloads).
Welcome to Invoke! Follow these steps to install, update, and get started with Invoke.
You can also follow out [installation documentation][installation docs].
### Step 1: Confirm System Requirements
**Before you start, ensure your system meets the following requirements:**
| **Minimum Requirements** |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|**Operating System:** Windows 10+, macOS 11.0+, or Linux (Ubuntu 20.04+ recommended).|
|**GPU:** |
| - **NVIDIA:** GTX 1060 or higher (6GB VRAM), CUDA 11.3+. |
| - **AMD:** RX 5700 or higher, ROCm 5.4+ (Linux only).|
|**RAM:** 8GB or more.|
|**Disk Space:** 10GB free for installation (30GB+ recommended for models).|
**Recommended for Best Performance**
- **GPU:** NVIDIA RTX 20 Series or AMD RDNA2 GPUs with 8GB+ VRAM.
- **RAM:** 16GB or more.
- **Disk Space:** 100GB if working with multiple models.
### Step 2: Download the Launcher
Download the most recent launcher for your operating system:
- [Download for Windows](https://download.invoke.ai/Invoke-Installer-windows-x64.exe)
- [Download for macOS](https://download.invoke.ai/Invoke-Installer-mac-arm64.dmg)
- [Download for Linux](https://download.invoke.ai/Invoke-Installer-linux-x86_64.AppImage)
### Step 3: Install or Update Invoke
Run the launcher you just downloaded. You’ll have two options:
1. **Launch / update from an existing installation:**
- If you installed Invoke previously, click *Select an existing installation* to connect to it. You'll be able to update or launch the existing installation.
2. **Launch from a fresh installation:**
- Click *Install* to set up a new instance of Invoke.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.
### Step 4: Run Invoke from Your Browser
Once installed, click Finish, then Launch to start Invoke.
- The very first run after an installation will take a few extra moments to get ready. It will be faster after the first run.
### Step 5: Install a Starter Model Pack or Locate Models On Your Hard Drive
After launching Invoke:
1. Go to the **Model Manager** tab.
2. Install one of the suggested Starter Model packs. If you already have models installed on your hard drive, you can provide that folder location and Invoke will automatically add those models to your studio.
You’re now ready to start creating!
