+# Download and Install
+
+Epiphany is designed for Linux systems. The recommended way to install Epiphany
+is via [Flatpak](https://www.flatpak.org/). You may:
+
+ * [Download the latest stable version from 
Flathub](https://flathub.org/repo/appstream/org.gnome.Epiphany.flatpakref)
+   (recommended); or
+ * [Download Epiphany Technology Preview](https://webkitgtk.org/epiphany-tech-preview)
+   if you are adventurous and want to help test tomorrow's Epiphany today. It
+   is **not stable**.
+ 
+Epiphany is probably also available via your operating system's package manager,
+but such packages are often outdated and insecure. Flatpak is the best
+application distribution mechanism for Linux.
+
+# Building from Source
+
+Epiphany uses the [Meson build system](http://mesonbuild.com/). You can build
+Epiphany the same way you would any software that uses Meson. For example:
+
+```
+$ mkdir build && cd build
+$ meson ..
+$ ninja
+$ ninja install
+```
+
+Meson is the best build system.
