'''Research, organize and share your family tree with Gramps.'''
Gramps is a free software project and community. We strive to produce a genealogy program that is both intuitive for hobbyists and feature-complete for professional genealogists. It is a community project, created, developed and governed by genealogists.

This installer supports Microsoft Windows in all versions [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows/lifecycle Vista/7] and later. The 64-bit versions of Windows allow more efficient access to more resources.
(''Please note: Gramps prefers the Python-3.5 and Gtk-3.18 libraries and newer. Those libraries have dropped support for Windows XP. But Gramps can still be run on Windows XP with earlier library versions, i.e., Python3.4.4 and Gtk-3.16'')

After download: Double-click the .dmg file to mount the disk (note: your browser may do this for you automatically). Next , drag the Gramps application to your application folder and double-click to launch it [[#4|[4]]].(For Apple Mac OS X, alternatively, you can click and hold on the disk icon at the top of the window of the mounted disk, and then option-drag to the Applications folder.

=== Debian-based ===

Double-click on the downloaded .deb file or (for some distributions, e.g. Mint Debian) run the following command from the directory where the file was saved ({{man menu|change the filename to match the one you downloaded}}).
sudo dpkg -i gramps_{{version}}-1_all.deb
to install the dependencies.
If you see an error about language support when starting Gramps, run
 
sudo apt install language-pack-gnome-en
 
to install the proper language pack. You may need to replace 'en' with your own language code, like 'nl' for Dutch.
==== Useful command lines ====
Before upgrading you can[https://sourceforge.net/p/gramps/mailman/message/35460486/]:
'''Upgrade is then complete.'''
 
=== Flathub ===
 
Gramps 5.1.4 is available in a flatpak at flathub.
 
{{man note|Please use your existing installation to backup your database before proceeding.|Also, it is a good idea to [[Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#Converting_a_BSDDB_Family_Tree_to_SQLite|convert your database to SQLite]] even though there is currently BSDDB3 support in the 5.1.4 flatpak.}}
 
First set up flatpak and the flathub repository on your system, there are instructions for various distributions at https://flatpak.org/setup/
 
Second, you can use the blue install button at https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gramps_project.Gramps if you set your software manager up to work with flathub, or use the command below in a terminal for a system wide installation if you have sudo privileges:
 
flatpak install flathub org.gramps_project.Gramps
