+Building from source
+--------------------
+
+We support building ROS 2 from source on the following platforms:
+
+
+* `Linux <Installation/Linux-Development-Setup>`
+* `macOS <Installation/macOS-Development-Setup>`
+* `Windows <Installation/Windows-Development-Setup>`
+
 
-Multiple distributions of ROS 2 are supported at a time.
-We recommend using the most recent release available when possible.
+Which install should you choose?
+--------------------------------
 
-Select your ROS distribution
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Installing from binary packages or from source will both result in a fully-functional and usable ROS 2 install.
+Differences between the options depend on what you plan to do with ROS 2.
 
+**Binary packages** are for general use and provide an already-built install of ROS 2.
+This is great for people who want to dive in and start using ROS 2 as-is, right away.

+Linux users have two options for installing binary packages:
 
+- Debian packages
+- "fat" archive
 
-For more detailed descriptions of each release see `REP-2000 <https://www.ros.org/reps/rep-2000.html>`_
+Installing from Debian packages is the recommended method.
+It's more convenient because it installs its necessary dependencies automatically.
+It also updates alongside regular system updates.
 
-Why you might want an older distribution
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-You may want to install an older distribution if you need ROS 2 to:
+However, you need root access in order to install Debian packages.
+If you don't have root access, the "fat" archive is the next best choice.
 
-* Operate on an older platform
-* Need a package that hasn’t been released into the latest distribution
-* Be supported for a longer period of time (the latest release isn’t necessarily supported the longest)
+macOS and Windows users who choose to install from binary packages only have the "fat" archive option
+(Debian packages are exclusive to Ubuntu/Debian).
 
-General users with no special considerations should use the most recent release available.
+**Building from source** is meant for developers looking to alter or explicitly omit parts of ROS 2's base.
+It is also recommended for platforms that don't support binaries.
+Building from source also gives you the option to install the absolute latest version of ROS 2.
