# Installation
Rojo has two components:
* The server, a binary written in Rust
* The plugin, a Roblox Studio plugin written in Lua
It's important that the plugin and server are compatible. The plugin will show errors in the Roblox Studio Output window if there is a version mismatch.
## Installing the Server
To install the server, either:
* If you have Rust installed, use `cargo install rojo`
* Or, download a pre-built Windows binary from [the GitHub releases page](https://github.com/LPGhatguy/rojo/releases)
**The Rojo binary must be run from the command line, like Terminal on MacOS or `cmd.exe` on Windows. It's recommended that you put the Rojo binary on your `PATH` to make this easier.**
## Installing the Plugin
To install the plugin, either:
* Install the plugin from the [Roblox plugin page](https://www.roblox.com/library/1211549683/Rojo).
* This gives you less control over what version you install -- you will always have the latest version.
* Or, download the latest release from [the GitHub releases section](https://github.com/LPGhatguy/rojo/releases) and install it into your Roblox plugins folder
* You can open this folder by clicking the "Plugins Folder" button from the Plugins toolbar in Roblox Studio
