 ## Getting started
 
-CLIMADA runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. It can be installed from sources or - in case of climada_python - directly with pip. See the [installation guide](https://climada-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guide/install.html) for instructions.
+CLIMADA runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
+The released versions of the CLIMADA core can be installed directly through Anaconda:
+```shell
+conda install -c conda-forge climada
+```
+It is **highly recommended** to install CLIMADA into a **separate** Anaconda environment.
+See the [installation guide](https://climada-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guide/install.html) for further information.
 
 Follow the [tutorial](https://climada-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial/1_main_climada.html) `climada_python-x.y.z/doc/tutorial/1_main_climada.ipynb` in a Jupyter Notebook to see what can be done with CLIMADA and how.
