Installation
- download and extract the zip file to an arbitrary folder
- start Matlab (version 2016b or newer required - older versions have not been tested)
- change the current folder in Matlab to the folder where MTEX is installed
- type
startup_mtex
into the command window - click one of the menu items to import data or to consult the documentation
In case you experience any problems, especiall on Mac OSX, have a look at our trouble shooting page

Compatibility
Since MTEX is a MATLAB toolbox, MATLAB has to be installed in order to use MTEX. It works fine with the student version and does not require any additional toolboxes, addons or packages. There are some very few exceptions like GND and Taylor computation that currently require the optimization toolbox to be installed. Please use a Matlab version as recent as possible for MTEX. We try hard to make MTEX as backward compatible as possible. However, you can not expect a MTEX version to run on a 10 years older Matlab version.
