-## Installation option 1: conda
+## Installation
 
-Open a terminal and copy and paste these commands one at a time ([install conda](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html) first if you don't have it already):
+The recommended installation methods are the following:
+
+* Linux and macOS: using conda natively.
+* Windows: using conda on WSL ([WSL installation guide](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/wiki/Windows-Subsystem-for-Linux-(Ubuntu)-Installation-Guide)).
+
+Conda can be downloaded here: https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html

+#### 1. Create a new conda environment
 
 ```
-conda create -n textgen
+conda create -n textgen python=3.10.9
 conda activate textgen
-conda install torchvision=0.14.1 torchaudio=0.13.1 pytorch-cuda=11.7 git -c pytorch -c nvidia
-git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
-cd text-generation-webui
-pip install -r requirements.txt
 ```
 
-The third line assumes that you have an NVIDIA GPU. 
+#### 2. Install Pytorch
 
-* If you have an AMD GPU, replace the third command with this one:
+| System | GPU | Command |
+|--------|---------|---------|
+| Linux/WSL | NVIDIA | `conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=11.7 -c pytorch -c nvidia` |
+| Linux | AMD | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.4.2` |
+| MacOS + MPS (untested) | Any | `conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio -c pytorch` |
 
-```
-pip3 install torch torchvision=0.14.1 torchaudio=0.13.1 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.2
-```

-* If you are running it in CPU mode, replace the third command with this one:

+#### 3. Install the web UI
 
 ```
-conda install pytorch torchvision=0.14.1 torchaudio=0.13.1 git -c pytorch
+git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
+cd text-generation-webui
+pip install -r requirements.txt
 ```
 
-> **Note**
-> 1. If you are on Windows, it may be easier to run the commands above in a WSL environment. The performance may also be better. A full guide can be found here: [Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu) Installation Guide

-## Installation option 2: one-click installers
+As an alternative to the recommended WSL method, you can install the web UI natively on Windows using this guide. It will be a lot harder and the performance may be slower: [Installation instructions for human beings](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/wiki/Installation-instructions-for-human-beings).

 ## Downloading models
 
 Models should be placed under `models/model-name`. For instance, `models/gpt-j-6B` for [GPT-J 6B](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B/tree/main).
