wfLoadSkin( 'Modern' );
Done - Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the skin is successfully installed.
To users running MediaWiki 1.24 or earlier:
The instructions above describe the new way of installing skins using wfLoadSkin(), since MediaWiki 1.25. If you need to install this skin in earlier versions, instead of wfLoadSkin( 'Modern' );, you need to use:

(To run an skin on an earlier release, you may need to download the version of it tagged for that release from Special:SkinDistributor.)
