I already pointed you¹ to the right place, it's the ConTeXt
standalone distribution:

It's a binary distribution. At least TeX and a few helper programs
are provided as binaries. The ConTeXt macros themselves are provided
as source code but they are “compiled” on-the-fly during the
installation. You don't need to compile anything manually. Running
first-setup (and optionally adding ConTeXt to your PATH) is
sufficient.
