# Configuring Lux Lab

Configuring Lux Lab means installing it and connecting it to your ServiceNow instance. You also set your preferences in the **App Settings** panel, including your profile, appearance, editor behavior, and integrations.

## Minimum requirements

Lux Lab requires the operating system, tools, and connectivity in the following table.

|Requirement|Minimum version|
|-----------|---------------|
|macOS|12 \(Monterey\) or later|
|Windows|10 \(64-bit\) or later|
|Node.js|v24 or later|
|pnpm|v10 or later|
|Git|v2.30 or later|
|Internet connection|Required, for instance connectivity and agent features|

## Setup tasks

Setup has two parts. First, you install Lux Lab from the ServiceNow® Developer Store. Then you connect it to your instance, so that you can access relevant files and deploy your changes. For the procedures, see [Install Lux Lab](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/installing-lux-lab.md) and [Connect Lux Lab to an instance](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/connecting-lux-lab-to-an-instance.md).

## App settings

Beyond installation and the instance connection, most other configuration is in the App Settings panel. For the panel's sections and options, see [App Settings panel](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/app-settings.md).
