## Installation on Linux - Step by Step
Here is a step by step procedure for Linux, that should work for other unixy
operating systems as well:
1. Open a command line window (e.g. using Konsole or XTerm).
2. If necessary [install Composer][]:
``` sh
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
```
3. Navigate to the root folder of your MediaWiki installation. That's the one
with the `LocalSettings.php` file in it.
4. Open the `composer.local.json` file in an editor and add the Chameleon skin
to the `require` section:
`require` section:
```
"require": {
"mediawiki/chameleon-skin": "~1.0"
}
```
* Remark 1: If you do not have a `composer.local.json` file (MediaWiki <1.25),
use `composer.json` instead.
* Remark 2: If you do not have a `composer.json` file (MediaWiki <1.23.5),
copy `composer.json.example` to `composer.json` first.
5. To actually install Chameleon run the command
`composer update "mediawiki/chameleon-skin"`
6. If there were no errors, close the command line window.
7. Open `LocalSettings.php` in an editor (e.g. Kate). Include
`$wgDefaultSkin='chameleon';` as the last line. Save the file and close the
editor.
8. Open your wiki in a browser. Chameleon should be installed.
9. If not, force reload the page to [refresh your browser cache][cache-refresh].
(On Firefox or Chrome press Ctrl+F5)
