1. Download the Toolkit

Downloading the Toolkit

The Toolkit is compatible with both the Server CE and Server Pro and is the recommend installation method. Using the Toolkit will allow you to easily get started with Server CE and seamlessly upgrade to Server Pro if required.

To install the Toolkit you'll need to navigate to the intended installation path and then clone the Overleaf Toolkit GitHub repository using this command:

git clone https://github.com/overleaf/toolkit.git ./overleaf-toolkit

To prevent any potential permissions issues we recommend installing the Toolkit in your users $HOME directory.

Wait for the cloning process to complete then let's switch into the newly created overleaf-toolkit directory:

cd ./overleaf-toolkit
