From the instructions page: Download the [https://smapi.io/ latest version of SMAPI].
To start with, you need to pick which option for downloading. The direct download is faster and easier, but you will eventually need to figure out Nexus anyways, so either option is a good option. Please be sure to check which version of SMAPI you need! This screenshot was taken in October 2021 and the latest version number may have changed since then, or you may want a specific version for other purposes.

=='''STEP 1'''==
[[File:8 SMAPI website.png|750px]]
|| To start, pick an option for downloading -- any of these listed will work. Please be sure to check which version of SMAPI you need! SMAPI 4.0.0 or later will only work on SDV 1.6. If you are still playing SDV 1.5.6 you will need a previous version of SMAPI, which you can get from [https://github.com/Pathoschild/SMAPI/releases the GitHub Releases page.]
Once you have the zip file downloaded, it may need to be unzipped or it may automatically unzip, depending on your OS version and your settings. If you need to unzip, just double click on the zip file or right click and select open.
Once downloaded, the file may need to be unzipped or it may automatically unzip, depending on your OS version and your settings. If you need to unzip it, just double click on the zip file or right click and select open.

=='''STEP 2'''==

|| Once unzipped, double-click on the folder to open its contents. Locate the <samp>install on macOS.command</samp> file.
|-
|
== '''STEP 3''' ==
[[File:10 SMAPI installer open.png|400px]]
|| Highlight the file, right click on it (on a trackpad, two finger click), and select open.
|-
|
== '''STEP 4''' ==
[[File:11 SMAPI open warning.png|300px]]
|| After you select open, a pop-up will warn you that SMAPI was not made by a big company that registered the app with Apple. This is okay, so select open.
|-
|
== '''STEP 5''' ==
[[File:12 SMAPI terminal 1.png|750px]]
|| Next, a new window should open in Terminal. If it doesn't, or if the window doesn't look like the next image, just quit Terminal and re-open the install file.
SMAPI's terminal window will guide you through the installation process.

|
== '''STEP 6''' ==
[[File:13 SMAPI terminal 2.png|750px]]
|| This step is to select your font color. Select one, input the number, and press enter.
|-
|
== '''STEP 7''' ==
[[File:14 SMAPI terminal 3.png|800px]]
|| The final step is to choose where SMAPI will install. Option 1 is the default MacOS location -- '''Double check the file path is correct.''' For most users, it should read: <samp>/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS</samp>.
You can choose a custom path, but this is not recommended for first-time users.

== '''STEP 8''' ==
[[File:15 SMAPI terminal success.png|800px]]
|| If successfully installed, you should see that two bundled mods were installed: Console Commands and Save Backup. You will then see "SMAPI is installed!" on the last line. Copy and save the game path at the top of the window for when you want to find your Mods folder.
(Note: The game path is almost invisible in dark mode, so you may want to change to light mode.)
