-## Development Environment
+## Installation
 
-reveal.js is built using the task-based command line build tool [grunt.js](http://gruntjs.com) ([installation instructions](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started#installing-the-cli)). With Node.js and grunt.js installed, you need to start by running ```npm install``` in the reveal.js root. When the dependencies have been installed you should run ```grunt watch``` to start monitoring files for changes.
+The **basic setup** is for authoring presentations only. The **full setup** gives you access to all reveal.js features as well as the development tasks needed to make changes to the source.
+
+### Basic setup
+
+The core of reveal.js is very easy to install. You'll simply need to download a copy of this repository and open the index.html file directly in your browser.g
+
+1. Download a copy of reveal.js from <https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/archive/master.zip>
+
+2. Unizp and replace the example contents in index.html with your own
+
+3. Open index.html in a browser to view it
+
+
+### Full setup
+
+Some reveal.js features, like external markdown, require that presentations run from a local web server. The following instructions will set up such a server as well as all of the development tasks needed to make edits to the reveal.js source code.
+
+1. Install [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/)
+
+2. Install [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started#installing-the-cli)
+
+4. Clone the reveal.js repository  
+```
+$ git clone git@github.com:hakimel/reveal.js.git
+```
+
+5. Install dependencies  
+```
+$ npm install
+```
+
+6. Serve the presentation and monitor source files for changes  
+```
+$ grunt serve
+```
+
+7. Open <http://localhost:8000> to view your presentation
 
-If you want to customise reveal.js without running grunt.js you can alter the HTML to point to the uncompressed source files (css/reveal.css & js/reveal.js).
