Magento is one of the most popular open systems for organizing electronic commerce network: based on the platform created over 100,000 online stores, third-party developers created more than 2 thousand extensions community project has about 375,000 members, the platform code was downloaded more than 2.5 million times through the system based on Magento in 2010 was sold for $ 25 billion.
For several years the platform several times been awarded prizes "Best of Open Source Software Awards" and "SourceForge Community Choice Awards".
This software was written using the Zend Framework. Magento source code distributed within the organization approved Open Source Initiative (OSI) License Open Software License (OSL) v3.0, close in nature to a license AGPL, but not compatible with GPL. Feature licenses OSL is that if someone modifies the program, but will not distribute your work, but simply uses it on his website, he is still obliged to open the code changes and distribute it under the same license. This OSL license does not prohibit commercial use of products.
And now I'll try to install it on my local machine.

It unpack files during the process of installation and «Full Release" that include already unpacked files.
Also download "Sample data" (Testing data) as it will help you get used to Magento and learn the interface.
