## Installation
You can install _WorldEditAadditions_ in multiple ways:
### Through ContentDB
WorldEditAdditions is on ContentDB here: <https://content.minetest.net/packages/Starbeamrainbowlabs/worldeditadditions/>.
### Through the latest release
You can get a copy of WorldEditAdditions by downloading the source code for the [latest release](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/releases/latest), but this is not recommended because it takes additional effort to update to the latest version.
### Through Git
You can also clone this git repository. Note that the `main` branch is not considered to be stable at all times - though it shouldn't crash. It is recommended that you checkout a release to ensure stability. Do that like so:
```bash
# First, clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions.git WorldEditAdditions
cd WorldEditAdditions
# Then, checkout the latest release on Linux:
git checkout "$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)";
```
Windows users, you'll need to check the [releases page](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/releases) and find the name of the latest release, then do this instead of the `git checkout` above:
```bash
git checkout TAG_NAME_HERE
```
