You can choose from one of the following four methods to install:
### Quick install using your web browser
* [**one-click install using your web browser (recommended)**](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/install/#install-with-web-browser)
* [install on your computer using **Git** with the Command Prompt/Terminal app](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/install/#install-with-git)
* [install on your computer by downloading the **ZIP files**](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/install/#install-with-zip)

1. [Install Academic with Netlify](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/sourcethemes/academic-kickstart)
* Netlify will provide you with a customizable URL to access your new site
2. On GitHub, go to your newly created `academic-kickstart` repository and edit `config.toml` to personalize your site. Shortly after saving the file, your site will automatically update
3. Read the [Quick Start Guide](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/) to learn how to add Markdown content. For inspiration, refer to the [Markdown content](https://github.com/gcushen/hugo-academic/tree/master/exampleSite) which powers the [Demo](https://academic-demo.netlify.com/)
