# How to install Desktop app
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
[LR]: https://github.com/zulip/zulip-electron/releases/latest
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you download from the [releases page][LR], be careful what version you pick.
|
||
|
|
There are two versions available -
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **beta:** these releases are the right balance between getting
|
||
|
|
new features early while staying away from nasty bugs.
|
||
|
|
- **stable:** these releases are more thoroughly tested; they receive
|
||
|
|
new features later, but there's a lower chance that things will go wrong.
