Do you want to learn how to use SQL and don’t know where to start?
Let’s try to install SQL Server (Developer Edition) for starters, you will need a test environment where you can break everything without any problem in order to learn
Downloading SQL Server
- First of all, let’s go to Microsoft webpage through this LINK.
- Now we are going to click on the Developer edition, you can either click on the link below or go there directly through THIS link.
Installation
- We execute the installation and click the first option that says “Basic” on the first Screen (I got it in Spanish, but it should be the same).
- Now let’s accept the terms and conditions and then decide where we want to install the SQL Server
- Click Install and Wait…
So this is it! There’s no more to do… BUT WAIT! Now we have to install SSMS to have a GUI environment to work with.
