# Installation {#installation}

The extension needs to be installed like any other extension of TYPO3 CMS. Get the
extension by one of the following methods:

1.  **Use composer**: Run

    ```bash
    composer require traw/video-vtt
    ```

    in your TYPO3 installation.
1.  **Get it from the Extension Manager:** Switch to the module **Admin Tools > Extensions**.
    Switch to **Get Extensions** and search for the extension key
    *video_vtt* and import the extension from the repository.
1.  **Get it from typo3.org:** You can always get current version from [TER](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/video_vtt/)
    by downloading the zip version. Upload the file afterwards in the Extension
    Manager.

> [!WARNING]
> TYPO3 strongly encourages users to use the [Composer-based installation instructions](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/tutorial-getting-started/main/en-us/Installation/Install.html#install)
> as the legacy method of installing TYPO3 is considered **out of date**.
