 ## Installation of DNA
 
+### Starting DNA
+To use DNA, simply download the latest `.jar` file under "[Releases](https://github.com/leifeld/dna/releases)" on the right along with the `sample.dna` file, a toy database you can load in DNA (password: `sample`) to play with the software. You can double-click on the `.jar` file to open DNA. No installation is required.
+
+If your system does not want to start DNA with a double-click on the `.jar` file, you can also open it from the terminal. To do so, navigate to the directory where the `.jar` file is stored on your computer using the `cd` command, for example `cd ~/Documents/`. Once there, type in something like this, with the `.jar` file corresponding to the file version you downloaded:
+
+``` shell
+java -jar dna-3.0.11.jar
+```
+
+Along with DNA, it is recommended to download [visone](https://visone.ethz.ch/), which can be opened in the same way as DNA. You can open `.graphml` files from DNA's network export in visone.
+
+### Java installation and version check
 DNA was written in Java and requires Java 11 or higher on your system. You can check if you have Java >= 11 on your system by opening the terminal of your operating system (e.g., typing `cmd` in your Windows start menu or using the terminal app on MacOS) and typing:

 If this indicates a version below 11 (or 1.11), installing the latest version of [Adoptium Temurin OpenJDK](https://adoptium.net) or any other Java >= 11 is recommended before you proceed. Once installed, restart your system and check the version again.

+MacOS users may need to give the program authorization to be executed by opening the system settings and activating "Anywhere" rather than "App store and identified developers" under "Privacy & Security" -> "Security" -> "Allow applications downloaded from" (see [here](https://macpaw.com/how-to/fix-macos-cannot-verify-that-app-is-free-from-malware) for instructions).

-If you require the latest (non-release) version of the DNA jar file from GitHub, you can clone the git repository to your computer and execute `./gradlew build` on your terminal or command line. This will build the jar file, the rDNA R package, and the bibliography, and store them in the `build/` directory of the cloned repository. If you only want to build the jar file, you can also execute `./gradlew :dna:build` (omit `./` on Windows). Alternatively, you can try to download the latest artifact from the build process under [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/leifeld/dna/actions) by clicking on the latest build and scrolling down to "Artifacts". However, it is usually recommended to use the most recent [release](https://github.com/leifeld/dna/releases/) version.
