Tigerstripe provides multiple features and bundles for download. As a first time user, mostly interested in building a model, and trying code generation from it, we recommend you download the "Tigerstripe Workbench" feature (end-user workbench) from the [http://www.eclipse.org/tigerstripe/downloads.php#latest Latest Build]. Please note that there are 2 bundles available for download:
+
See '''[[Tigerstripe Installation Instructions]]'''.
* The first .zip file (Workbench Plugins only) contains only Tigerstripe's plugins. Which mean you need to install the required plugins (EMF, GMF, etc...) to make it work. You may want to choose this option... if you know what you are doing :-).
+
* The second .zip file (Workbench Plugins + Required Plugins) is a bundle of not only the Tigerstripe plugins, but also all the required plugins. <strong>This should be your preferred choice.</strong>
+
 
+
Simply unzip the bundle on top of an Eclipse install (check version number for the specific build you are downloading) and fire off Eclipse. You should be good to go!
