On this page, you can decide whether to run the full client, the light client, or the testnet. If you do not check any of these options, then you will download the full client, and therefore you will need to download the full Ardor blockchain on your computer. You must download the full client if you wish to forge in your own wallet.

If you have slow internet connection and you are not concerned with forging your Ardor coins in your own wallet, then you should check the box for the light client. If you want to do some testing of Ardor’s features using fake coins, then you should use the testnet. Please note that this is not the experimental testnet including lightweight contracts and transactions vouchers, please find a guide on how to download experimental testnet 2.1.0e.

Once you have decided on which version of the client you wish to download, click “Next.”
