+Next Tutorial: \ref cppgetstarted
+
+These instructions are for installing only Ignition Messages.
+If you're interested in using all the Ignition libraries, check out this [Ignition installation](https://ignitionrobotics.org/docs/latest/install).
+
+We recommend following the Binary Installation instructions to get up and running as quickly and painlessly as possible.
+
+The Source Installation instructions should be used if you need the very latest software improvements, you need to modify the code, or you plan to make a contribution.
+
+# Binary Installation
+
+## Ubuntu
+
+On Ubuntu systems, `apt-get` can be used to install `ignition-msgs`:
+```
+sudo apt install libignition-msgs<#>-dev
+```
+
+Be sure to replace `<#>` with a number value, such as 2 or 3, depending on
+which version you need.
+
+## Windows
+
+Install [Conda package management system](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/install/download.html).
+Miniconda suffices.
+
+Create if necessary, and activate a Conda environment:
+```
+conda create -n ign-ws
+conda activate ign-ws
+```
+
+Install `ignition-msgs`:
+```
+conda install libignition-msgs<#> --channel conda-forge
+```
+
+Be sure to replace `<#>` with a number value, such as 2 or 3, depending on
+which version you need.
+
+# Source Installation
+
+## Ubuntu
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+Install required dependencies as follows:
+```
+sudo apt-get install libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libprotoc-dev libignition-math6-dev
+```
+
+### Building from Source
+
+Standard installation can be performed in UNIX systems using the following
+steps:
+```
+mkdir build/
+cd build/
+cmake ..
+sudo make install
+```
+
+### Uninstallation
+
+To uninstall the software installed with the previous steps:
+```
+cd build/
+sudo make uninstall
+```
+
+## Windows
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+First, follow the [ign-cmake](https:/ignitionrobotics/ign-cmake) tutorial for installing Conda, Visual Studio, CMake, etc., prerequisites, and creating a Conda environment.
+
+Navigate to `condabin` if necessary to use the `conda` command (i.e., if Conda is not in your `PATH` environment variable. You can find the location of `condabin` in Anaconda Prompt, `where conda`).
+
+Activate the Conda environment:
+```
+conda activate ign-ws
+```
+
+Install prerequisites:
+```
+conda install tinyxml2 protobuf --channel conda-forge
+```
+
+Install Ignition dependencies:
+
+You can view lists of dependencies:
+```
+conda search libignition-msgs* --channel conda-forge --info
+```
+
+Install dependencies, replacing `<#>` with the desired versions:
+```
+conda install libignition-cmake<#> libignition-math<#> libignition-tools<#> --channel conda-forge
+```
+
+### Building from Source
+
+This assumes you have created and activated a Conda environment while installing the Prerequisites.
+
+1. Navigate to where you would like to build the library, and clone the repository.
+ ```
+ # Optionally, append `-b ign-msgs#` (replace # with a number) to check out a specific version
+ git clone https:/ignitionrobotics/ign-msgs.git
+ ```
+
+2. Configure and build
+ ```
+ cd ign-msgs
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ cmake .. -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF # Optionally, -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=path\to\install
+ cmake --build . --config Release
+ ```
+
+3. Optionally, install
+ ```
+ cmake --install . --config Release
+ ```
+
+# Documentation
+
+API documentation and tutorials can be accessed at
+[https://ignitionrobotics.org/libs/cmake](https://ignitionrobotics.org/libs/cmake)
+
+You can also generate the documentation from a clone of this repository by following these steps.
+
+1. You will need [Doxygen](http://www.doxygen.org/). On Ubuntu Doxygen can be installed using
+ ```
+ sudo apt-get install doxygen
+ ```
+
+2. Clone the repository
+ ```
+ git clone https:/ignitionrobotics/ign-cmake
+ ```
+
+3. Configure and build the documentation.
+ ```
+ cd ign-cmake
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ cmake ..
+ make doc
+ ```
+
+4. View the documentation by running the following command from the `build` directory.
+ ```
+ firefox doxygen/html/index.html
+ ```
+
+## Documentation Release
+
+1. Upload documentation to ignitionrobotics.org.
+ ```
+ cd build
+ sh upload.sh
+ ```
+
+2. If you're creating a new release, then tell ignitionrobotics.org about
+ the new version. For example:
+ ```
+ curl -k -X POST -d '{"libName":"msgs", "version":"1.0.0", "releaseDate":"2017-10-09T12:10:13+02:00","password":"secret"}' https://api .ignitionrobotics.org/1.0/versions
+ ```
+
+## Testing
+
+Run tests as follows:
+ ```
+ make test
+ ```
+
+Tests are automatically built. To disable them, run `cmake` as follows:
+ ```
+ cmake .. -DENABLE_TESTS_COMPILATION=false
+ ```
+
+### Test coverage
+
+To run test coverage:
+
+1. Install LCOV
+ ```
+ sudo apt-get install lcov
+ ```
+
+2. Build with coverage
+ ```
+ cd build/
+ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=coverage

+
+3. Run tests
