Click on the ["releases" link](https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/scorekeeper/releases) towards the upper right hand corner of the [main page](https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/scorekeeper) to navigate to the [Releases page](https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/scorekeeper/releases). | ||

Starting with the 2022-2023 season, the scoring system is primarily available to download as an installer. The installers can be found at | ||
`https://ftc-scoring.firstinspires.org/local/<season>` (and `https://ftc-scoring.firstinspires.org/local/<season>-offseason` after the season's world championship when offseason events can be hosted). | ||

||
The scoring system will autoupdate to the latest available version for the season on launch if connected to the internet. | ||
|
||
### Choosing the correct installer | ||
|
||
The website will detect the platform you are running on and offer a button to download for that platform. | ||

|
||
Browse the [Releases page](https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/scorekeeper/releases) for the version that you are looking for, and click on the appropriate link to download the archived software. The software is stored on the server as an archived .zip or .tar file. Note that most users (Windows and Mac users especially) will want to download the .zip format archive file. Once you have downloaded the archive file, uncompress the file using the appropriate tool on your computer. | ||
If you need to download for one system from another (e.g. the scoring computer runs Windows but you are downloading on a Mac to put on a flash drive), other systems can be found by clicking on "All platforms". | ||

<p align="center">Click on the file that you'd like to download.</p> | ||
If you are downloading for macOS or for Linux and are unsure which download is correct for you, run `uname -m` in a terminal and select the corresponding download. | ||
|
||
Note that you want to download the "FIRST-Tech-Challenge-Live" archive file, and not the "Source code" file. The "Source code" file does not contain any usable content. | ||
> [!WARNING] | ||
> While we will address any issues reported through this repository for Linux, we are unable to provide Linux-specific event-day support and therefore encourage running the scoring system on Windows or macOS unless your event has volunteers sufficiently experienced in debugging issues on Linux. | ||
### Advanced installer | ||
|
||
In some cases you may not be able to run the provided installer (e.g. security policies on the scorekeeper computer). In those cases you can run the scoring system through a package that is similar to how it was provided in previous seasons. | ||
|
||
There is a download available under the "Advanced" dropdown that works on all platforms. | ||
![Advanced download section screenshot](https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/scorekeeper/assets/3067361/9371f9c2-06f8-40b9-a06f-17e838c8fa44) | ||
|
||
> [!NOTE] | ||
> This requires a global installation of Java 17, which can be [downloaded and installed from here](https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-17-lts&package=jre). | ||
To launch, extract the zip and open the `FTCLauncher` file on macOS/Linux or the `FTCLauncher.bat` file on Windows. This version of the scoring system still has the same auto-update feature as the installer version. | ||
