<p class="lead">For the Mars release, we are introducing a new Eclipse installer.
This is a new more efficient way to install Eclipse. It is a proper
installer, so no more zip files, with a self extracting download that
will lead you through the installation experience. For those not into
installers, we still have the packages and zip files available on our download pages.</p>
<hr>
<h2>1. Download Eclipse Installer</h2>
<p>Download Eclipse Installer from <a href="/downloads">http://www.eclipse.org/downloads</a></p>

<h2>2. Select the mirror for download</h2>
<p>Eclipse is hosted on many mirrors around the world. Please select
the one closest to you and start to download the Installer</p>
<hr>
<h2>3. Start the Eclipse Installer Executable</h2>
<p>For Windows users, after the Eclipse Installer executable has finished downloading it should
available in your download directory. Start the Eclipse Installer executable.
You may get a security warning to run this file. If the Eclipse Foundation is
the Publisher, you are good to select Run.</p>
<p>For Mac and Linux users, you will still need to unzip the download to create the Installer.
Start the Installer once it is available.</p>
