+# Running SystemDS
+
+This guide explains how to run SystemDS regardless of whether you installed it 
from a Release or built it from Source. All execution modes -local, Spark, and 
federated- are covered in this document.
+
+---
+
+- [1. Prerequisites](#1-prerequisites)
+- [2. Set SYSTEMDS_ROOT and PATH](#2-set-systemds_root-and-path)
+- [3. Run a Simple Script Locally](#3-run-a-simple-script-locally)
+- [4. Run a Script on Spark](#4-run-a-script-on-spark)
+- [5. Run a Script in Federated Mode](#5-run-a-script-in-federated-mode)
+
+---
+
+# 1. Prerequisites
+
+### Java Requirement ###
+For compatability with Spark execution and parser components, **Java 17** is 
strongly recommended for SystemDS.
+
+Verify Java version:
+
+```bash
+java -version
+```
+
+### Spark (required only for Spark execution) ###
+
+- Use Spark 3.x.
+- Spark 4.x is not supported due to ANTLR runtime incompatibilities.
+
+Verify Spark version:
+
+```bash
+spark-submit --version
+```
+
+---
+
+# 2. Set SYSTEMDS_ROOT and PATH
+
+This step is required for both Release and Source-build installations. Run the 
following in the root directory of your SystemDS installation:
+
+```bash
+export SYSTEMDS_ROOT=$(pwd)
+export PATH="$SYSTEMDS_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
+```
+
+It can be beneficial to enter these into your `~/.profile` or `~/.bashrc` for 
linux,
+(but remember to change `$(pwd` to the full folder path)
+or your environment variables in windows to enable reuse between terminals and 
restarts.
+
+```bash
+echo 'export SYSTEMDS_ROOT='$(pwd) >> ~/.bashrc
+echo 'export PATH=$SYSTEMDS_ROOT/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
+```

Review Comment:
   I would mention that in `release_install` as well. Otherwise, after 
restarting the terminal people might get confused when only following 
quickstart. Also, for prerequisites that are already mentioned in the install 
guides can be referenced rather than repeating the same thing.

+# 1. Download a Release
+
+Download the official release archive from the Apache SystemDS website:
+
+https://apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/systemds/
+
+After downloading the file `systemds-<VERSION>.tar.gz`, place the file in any 
directory you choose for installation.
+
+### Java Requirement ###
+For compatability with Spark execution and parser components, **Java 17** is 
strongly recommended for SystemDS.
+
+Verify Java 17:
+
+```bash

+
+If missing, install a JDK 17 distribution.
+
+---
+
+# 2. Install on Windows
+
+### 2.1 Extract the Release Archive
+
+Use Windows built-in extractor.
+
+### 2.2 Set Evironment Variables
+
+To run SystemDS from the command line, configure:
+- `SYSTEMDS_ROOT`-> the extracted folder
+- Add `%SYSTEMDS_ROOT%\bin` to your `PATH`
+
+Example (PowerShell):
+
+```bash
+setx SYSTEMDS_ROOT "C:\path\to\systemds-<VERSION>"
+setx PATH "$env:SYSTEMDS_ROOT\bin;$env:PATH"
+```
+
+Restart the terminal afterward.
+
+# 3. Install on Ubuntu 22.04
+
+### 3.1 Extract the Release
+
+```bash
+cd /path/to/install
+tar -xvf systemds-<VERSION>.tar.gz
+cd systemds-<VERSION>
+```
+
+### 3.2 Add SystemDS to PATH
+
+```bash
+export SYSTEMDS_ROOT=$(pwd)
+export PATH="$SYSTEMDS_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
+```

Review Comment:
   I tried to follow the guide for ubuntu 22.04 (I set up a fresh docker image 
with java, tar and wget installed). After downloading and extracting the 
release, I got stuck with this error.
   
   Docker image I tested on:
   
   ```dockerfile
   FROM ubuntu:22.04
   
   ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive

       apt-get install -y \

       && apt-get clean \

Review Comment:
   Would be nice to mention that you can also add the `bin` folder to `PATH`. 
Then you can directly access your last local build through CLI.
