# With the Installer

This guide will walk you through installing ETS2LA via the automatic installer.

# Download the requirements

You can download NodeJS from here (nodejs.org).

Tip

NodeJS is only required if you want to run the frontend locally. If you are fine with accessing it through the internet, then you can skip this step.

Most people will already have ran vc_redist once, but in the case that you've never downloaded it before, you can get it from here (aka.ms).

You can now download the installer from here (github.com).

# Installing the app

Just run the installer exe file you downloaded in the previous step. It will ask you for a few things, such as where to install the app and whether you want a desktop shortcut.

# What to do once ETS2LA is open?

Once the onboarding is done you can just go to the plugin manager and enable the plugins. Then open the game and it should just work.
