Installation

This guide helps you install Espanso Dynamic Forms on your system.

Before You Begin

Make sure Espanso is already installed and working. You can verify by typing a test trigger in any text field. If Espanso expands your text, you're ready to continue.

New to Espanso?

Visit espanso.org to install it first. Espanso Dynamic Forms extends Espanso's capabilities, it doesn't work without it.

Choose Your Platform

Windows

Install on Windows — Download and run the installer. Takes about 2 minutes.

Linux

Install on Linux — Choose between a .deb package (Debian/Ubuntu) or a universal .AppImage.

After Installation

Espanso Dynamic Forms is designed to be launched by Espanso triggers, not run as a standalone app. Follow the Getting Started guide to create your first trigger and test your installation.
