+Download & Install
+++++++++++++++++++
+There are 3 approaches to install ONAP:
+
+* Full ONAP installation using Heat template
+* Advanced installation to install individual components
+* Experimental installation using Kubernetes
+
+Full ONAP installation using Heat template
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+From a complete demo solution perspective. This installs the whole ONAP, refer to :ref:`Setting Up ONAP <demo-installing-running-onap>`.
+
+Advanced installation to install individual components
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+From a developer perspective, ONAP can be installed component per component. For details, refer to :ref:`the installation procedure available for each component<doc_onap-developer_guide_projects>`.
+The advanced installation procedure is recommended only for experienced developers who desire to focus their attention on a few components and who have a deep understanding of dependencies between components.
+This type of installation is not recommended to fully install ONAP.
+
+* The list of ports used by default within ONAP is documented in `ONAP Service List <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/ONAP+Services+List>`_.
