How to install
Step 1 · Operating system
Step 2 · Edition
Install via your OS package manager. Using the initMAX repository (apt / dnf) is the recommended way - you get GPG-signed updates automatically.
PRO repositories are protected with HTTP basic auth. You need one personal repo token, then you point your package manager at the authenticated URL. A single token unlocks every product your account is entitled to - you do not need a token per widget.
