Which operating system are you on? The windows version is quite detailed. The others could have more specific instructions.

Linux -- julia download

Current instruction: "Download the current stable release from the Julia download page and unpack the folder to any location that is in your PATH or link the binary in the bin folder to such a location."

I believe that it should be better to add explicit instructions/commands in the module itself.

I think it could be time to recommend juliaup as the primary way to do this.
