Step 2: Scroll up and Download the Magisk zip file or click here.
Step 3: Reboot your phone into your custom recovery and flash the downloaded zip file. If you do not have a custom recovery installed on your device, you can find a guide online on how to install TWRP and root with Magisk on your specific Android devices.
Install with Magisk Manager:

However, you MUST have a stock boot image dump beforehand, and you also have to be able to flash the patched boot image, either through fastboot/download mode or ODIN.
Step 1: Scroll up Download and Install the latest Magisk Manager or click here
Step 2: If you’re planning to flash the patched boot image through ODIN, go to Settings > Update Settings > Patched Boot Output Format, and select .img.tar. For normal users leave it as the default .img

Step 4: Magisk Manager will now patch your boot image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/patched_boot.img[.tar]
Step 5: Copy the patched boot image to your PC. If you can’t find it via MTP, you can pull the file with ADB: adb pull /sdcard/Download/patched_boot.img[.tar]
Step 6: Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Here is the command if using fastboot: fastboot flash boot /path/to/patched_boot.img
