Lilypond is a commandline program that turns textual descriptions of the
score into a PDF (or midi). You use
lilypond THE_FILENAME.ly
to create the document, so automation is much easier.
You edit the .ly-files with any text editor you choose.

If you open a command shell, you should be able to simply type lilypond
(or, on Windows: lilypond.exe) to run it.

That’s one of the advantages of lilypond: you actually see what it does.
It’s the LaTeX of music and provides the most beautiful scores.
Best wishes,
