With so many versions of Magento available, and with many of them hidden within complex site-structures, it’s often hard to find the version you’re looking for. That’s why we’ve created this handy download resource. Here you can download all open source versions of Magento Community Edition 1.x and 2.x, all the way up to the latest version – Magento 2.4.5.
But remember, the Magento downloads here are the free versions only. Magento builds even more features into their flagship product: Magento Commerce. This can be purchased either as the self-host version (Magento Commerce) or as Magento Commerce Cloud – hosted by Magento on their own AWS stack. To find out more about this product take a look here.
The free Magento open source versions listed here are, however, a great place start in using Magento. As well as having nearly all the features of Magento Enterprise, you can also download sample data. With these data samples, you can set up a test-store (complete with Luna template), to see exactly how Magento works when stocked with a full inventory of products.

However, if you want to use the sample store, you will have to pre-install the sample data before installing Magento. If you wish to install the sample data after you have installed Magento, you will have to use third-party software to achieve this.
You can post-install the sample data in one of two ways:
