Download
qooxdoo is available in different packages depending on your specific needs. The most complete version that includes a comprehensive tool chain is the Source Development Kit (SDK).
What do you want to do?
Immediately Start Playing with Your First Application
The quickstart archive contains a simple application and a pre-build qooxdoo script file. It runs out-of-the-box requiring no software installation. Just open index.html in your browser, start your very first qooxdoo application by modifying Application.js and hit the reload button.
Evaluate the Complete Framework without Installation
The build archive is a pre-build version of almost the entire framework. All the applications that are part of the framework run out-of-the-box without the need to install any software: API viewer, showcase, feedreader, webmail, samples. This archive also includes the quickstart download mentioned above.
Leverage the Power of the Source Development Kit
The sdk archive contains the entire framework including all source files. In order to use the integrated tools and to generate full-blown qooxdoo applications, certain requirements have to be fulfilled. This usually means you need to install some missing development tools on your system. While Unix-based systems like Linux have most of the software pre-installed, Mac OS X users would have to install Fink and Windows users would have to install Cygwin.
If you use Cygwin under Windows and you have configured Cygwin to use DOS line breaks (which is not the default), you should download the zip archive with DOS line breaks
Install a Powerful RPC Backend
The backend archive contains several optional RPC servers, which are not included in the SDK. They allow for high-level client-server communication via remote procedure calls. No more hand-made, error-prone and potentially dangerous low-level AJAX calls. This archive contains versions in Java, PHP and Perl:

Go for the Bleeding Edge (SVN)
As an experienced software developer or qooxdoo contributor you may wish to obtain the latest svn snapshot directly from the Subversion repository. While not always stable, these editions of qooxdoo include new features not yet released in a formalized build. These versions contain the entire qooxdoo source code, including the optional RPC backends.
