# Setting Up Zoo Modeling App | ||
|
||
Compared to other CAD software, getting Zoo Modeling App up and running is quick and straighforward across platforms. It's about 100MB to download and is quick to install. | ||
|
||
## Windows | ||
|
||
1. Download the [Zoo Modeling App installer](https://zoo.dev/modeling-app/download) for Windows and for your processor type. | ||
|
||
2. Once downloaded, run the installer `Zoo Modeling App-{version}-{arch}-win.exe` which should take a few seconds. | ||
|
||
3. The installation happens at `C:\Program Files\Zoo Modeling App`. A shortcut in the start menu is also created so you can run the app easily by clicking on it. | ||
|
||
## macOS | ||
|
||
1. Download the [Zoo Modeling App installer](https://zoo.dev/modeling-app/download) for macOS and for your processor type. | ||
|
||
2. Once downloaded, open the disk image `Zoo Modeling App-{version}-{arch}-mac.dmg` and drag the applications to your `Applications` directory. | ||
|
||
3. You can then open your `Applications` directory and double-click on `Zoo Modeling App` to open. | ||
|
||
|
||
## Linux | ||
|
||
1. Download the [Zoo Modeling App installer](https://zoo.dev/modeling-app/download) for Linux and for your processor type. | ||
|
||
2. Install the dependencies needed to run the [AppImage format](https://appimage.org/). | ||
- On Ubuntu, install the FUSE library with these commands in a terminal. | ||
```bash | ||
sudo apt update | ||
sudo apt install libfuse2 | ||
``` | ||
- Further desktop environment can be achieved by installing `appimaged`, see [these steps](https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage/blob/master/src/appimaged/README.md#initial-setup). | ||
|
||
2. Once downloaded, copy the downloaded `Zoo Modeling App-{version}-{arch}-linux.AppImage` to the directory of your choice, for instance `~/Applications`. | ||
|
||
- `appimaged` should automatically find it and make it executable. If not, run: | ||
```bash | ||
chmod a+x ~/Applications/Zoo Modeling App-{version}-{arch}-linux.AppImage | ||
``` | ||
|
||
3. You can double-click on the AppImage to run it, or in a terminal with this command: | ||
```bash | ||
~/Applications/Zoo Modeling App-{version}-{arch}-linux.AppImage | ||
``` |
