==~~A matrix~~ of Sugar "solutions"==

This page is intended to give instructions on how to try Sugar.

Step 1. Determine which of the various methods of running Sugar meet your needs:

;LiveCD/LiveUSB:Suitable for trying Sugar without having to install anything software on almost any computer—just boot Sugar off of a CD or USB drive.

;Emulator:QEMU or VMWare let you run Sugar in an emulator on your computer—you'll need to install an emulator from which you launch Sugar.

;Install Sugar:If you are running one of the currently supported distributions, you can install Sugar using your systems standard package manager, e.g., Synaptic, apt-get, or yum.

;Build Sugar:You can run sugar-jhbuild to build the complete Sugar environment on most GNU/Linux systems.

;Pre-installed Sugar: Some computers come with Sugar pre-installed, most notably the OLPC-XO-1 laptop.

Step 2. Refer to the [[#Matrix of Sugar solutions|matrix]] below to find a Sugar solution that works for you.

=== Computer labs ===

Bill Kerr has written up instructions for trying Sugar in computer labs which run only Windows

(Please see [http://billkerr2.blogspot.com/2008/07/evaluating-sugar-in-developed-world.html]).

Caroline Meeks is developing a deployment model that only requires one USB stick per child (Please see [[]]).

==Matrix of Sugar solutions==

There are many ways to run Sugar:

* As a [[#Starch|separate disk image]] on an existing machine ~~(Please see [[Documentation/Try_Sugar|Try Sugar]] for examples of running Sugar on top of other systems, e.g., MS-Windows)~~;

* As a [[#Starch|separate disk image]] on an existing machine;

* As a [[#Sucrose|session]] on a Linux system; or

* As part of a [[#Systems|complete hardware-software platform]].
