3.1 Installing from MELPA

Org-roam is available from Melpa and Melpa-Stable. If you haven’t used Emacs’ package manager before, you may familiarize yourself with it by reading the documentation in the Emacs manual, see (emacs)Packages. Then, add one of the archives to ‘package-archives’:

• To use Melpa:

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)

• To use Melpa-Stable:

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("melpa-stable" . "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/") t)

Org-roam also depends on a recent version of Org, which can be obtained in Org’s package repository (see (org)Installation). To use Org’s ELPA archive:

(add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)

Once you have added your preferred archive, you need to update the local package list using:

M-x package-refresh-contents RET

Once you have done that, you can install Org-roam and its dependencies using:

M-x package-install RET org-roam RET
