Standalone installer
I'm a teacher at university who have a sort of CC team model installed on their computers. I wanted my students starts learning from beginning XD but unfortunately you can install it just via the CC app and there is no stand alone installer on line.
I know its not a feature request and its very specific request :)

Installation worked fine, but the app wouldn't start. It shows "configuration error: -2, uninstall and reinstall the product". I've done that a thousand times, and it's still thesame.

Adobe continues to make it difficult for those of us who evaluate their software, recommend and install it in the educational arena. Anything you (Adobe) does at this point will be too late for my school, but please release this as a stand alone installer for instructors who are wanting to demonstrate to students the features of Adobe. And please consider that these students are future customers!

Here's how you can get the Apps tab: http://help.utk.edu/kb/index2.php?func=show&e=2671.

So annoying. The information from Adobe states that a free account is acceptable to use and tryout XD. However the desktop app does not have an apps section and therefore will not install anything when one is signed in with a free account. Come on Adobe!

It would be really helpful for me as a Sys Admin if you can provide the stand alone installer as my organization users are requesting the installation bits.

I had the old version of experience design, however, it keeps remind me to update the newest one when I opened it. Unfortunately, I cannot download the newest one from the download page via website. Please help me.

I had the same issue.
I wanted my students to be able to use this. I'm teaching two classes: Mobile Design & Emerging technologies. I have been using the XD preview since the beginning and love it!
Our IT folks worked overtime to develop a custom installer to add XD to our classroom computers. The issue they had is the preview is not included in the enterprise license.
They did it! My students need to log-in to CC to use it and if other Apps from the enterprise license aren't launched first (illustrator, Photoshop) they wont launch.Not being attached to the enterprises is an issue. XD was just updated (added layers & symbols) and I had a project due last week. Since the students did the update, the update doesn't work on campus. I could not open their files to project them in class.
Our workaround was to share web links to preview, or pdf export.I already miss the live preview, on screen and attached iPhone in class. The immediate feedback is great for new designers working thru interaction iterations.
Your IT staff can get it on your computers but there remain issues.

Sigh. Yes. Please add us to the list -- a non-CCDA version is necessary for deployment to labs where end-users will not have admin access and ITPros use modern endpoint management systems.

I and many others I suppose fail about the hundredth time trying to install Adobe XD from the CC desktop app and it seems like there are no other options.

Like many others, we will not be able to offer students at our university the chance to learn this application unless a standalone Mac installer is created.

Like all the other CC applications, Adobe Experience Design should use widely-accepted Mac or Windows installation processes built with industry-standard .DMG and .EXE/,MSI files, rather than inventing a new scheme that cannot be run standalone and is fully dependent on the CC Desktop App to work.

Being able to install all the CC tools without using the Desktop App has been absolutely essential for an large number of customers since CC first launched in 2013. There are a number of valid and important use cases that break if using a standard, standalone installer is not possible – or if the Creative Cloud Desktop App has issues completing the download or installation (which is not uncommon).

Requiring a homegrown installation procedure that cannot be worked around in event of failure or offline access would inevitably disenfranchise a significant segment of the potential XD user base when they find themselves stuck with no way to move forward.
