Help:Download
Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) can be obtained from various sources. Complete file releases are distributed via the SMW project page on SourceForge, while the current development version can be accessed through MediaWiki's Subversion (SVN) system. See Help:Installation for details on installing SMW.
File releases
Semantic MediaWiki is released more or less regularly as a compressed archive file on SourceForge. Those stable releases are recommended for production use. The current stable release of Semantic MediaWiki can be obtained from the project's download page at SourceForge. It also includes the files for the Validator extension which is required for SMW 1.6.0 or higher.
Git
SMW and Validator releases and current development files can be accessed online via Git. The Git directories of SMW and of Validator show the current up-to-date content of the development repository. To check out a working copy of the current development files, you can use the following command for Semantic MediaWiki:
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/SemanticMediaWiki.git
and for Validator
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/Validator.git
Typically this is used directly from within the extension folder of your MediaWiki installation. Of course, a Git client needs to be installed for this to work.
Pre-packaged bundles
You can also download Semantic MediaWiki as part of two different pre-generated packages, that also contain related extensions: SMW+ and Semantic Bundle.
