You can download the latest version of Komga from the official website: komga.org. Once you have downloaded the zip file, extract it to a location of your choice.

Replace x.x.x with the version number of the Komga you downloaded.
You should see the output of the command, which will indicate that Komga has started successfully.
Komga will be accessible through your web browser using the address http://localhost:<port>/komga. Replace <port> with the port number you specified in the configuration settings.
