= Vaadin Installation Package
While the recommended way to create a Vaadin project and install the libraries is to use an IDE plugin or a dependency management system, such as Maven, Vaadin is also available as a ZIP distribution package.
You can download the newest Vaadin installation package from the download page
at http://vaadin.com/download/. Please use a ZIP decompression utility available
in your operating system to extract the files from the ZIP package.

== Installing the Libraries
You can install the Vaadin ZIP package in a few simple steps:
. Copy the JAR files at the package root folder to the [filename]#WEB-APP/lib# web
library folder in the project. Some of the libraries are optional, as explained
in
<<dummy/../../../framework/getting-started/getting-started-libraries#getting-started.libraries,"Overview
of Vaadin Libraries">>.
. Also copy the dependency JAR files at the [filename]#lib# folder to the
[filename]#WEB-APP/lib# web library folder in the project.
The location of the [filename]#WEB-APP/lib# folder depends on the project
organization, which depends on the development environment.
* In Eclipse Dynamic Web Application projects: [filename]#WebContent/WEB-INF/lib#.
* In Maven projects: [filename]#src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib#.
