Starting from Magento 2.4.2, the command line is the default way to install Magento. You can download the archive versions of Magento that you can install. However, it is strongly recommended that you use the Composer to download Magento instead. There are various benefits of using this method. Some of them are listed below:
• You can use Magento in the production environment • It allows you to reuse third-party libraries without combining them with source code • It manages dependencies to reduce extension conflicts and compatibility issues • It supports the PHP Framework standard • Repackage Magento Open Source with other components
