+## Installation
 
+### - Using Composer
+[**composer**](https://getcomposer.org/) is the recommended way to install the SDK. To use the SDK with project, add the following dependency to your application's composer.json and run `composer update --no-dev` to fetch the SDK. 
+
+You can download composer using instructions on [Composer Official Website.](https://getcomposer.org/download/)
+
+#### Prerequisites
+- *composer* for fetching dependencies (See [http://getcomposer.org](http://getcomposer.org))
+
+#### Steps to Install :
+
+Currently, Paypal PHP Rest API SDK is available at [https://packagist.org](https://packagist.org/packages/paypal/rest-api-sdk-php). To use it in your project, you need to include it as a dependency in your project composer.json file. It can be done in two ways :
+
+* Running `composer require paypal/rest-api-sdk-php:*` command on your project root location (where project composer.json is located.)
+
+* Or, manually editing composer.json file `require` field, and adding `"paypal\rest-api-sdk-php" :  "*"` inside it.
+
+The resultant sample *composer.json* would look like this:
+
+```php
+{
+  ...
+  
+  "name": "sample/website",
+  "require": {
+  	"paypal/rest-api-sdk-php" : "*"
+  }
+  
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+### - Direct Download (without using Composer)
+
+If you do not want to use composer, you can grab the SDK zip that contains Paypal PHP Rest API SDK with all its dependencies with it. 
+
+#### Steps to Install :
+- Download zip archive with desired version from our [Releases](https://github.com/paypal/rest-api-sdk-php/releases). Each release will have a `direct-download-*.zip` that contains PHP Rest API SDK and its dependencies.
+
+- Unzip and copy vendor directory inside your project, e.g. project root directory.
+
+- If your application has a bootstrap/autoload file, you should add 
+```php
+include '<vendor directory location>/vendor/autoload.php'
+``` in it. The location of the ```<vendor directory>``` should be replaced based on where you downloaded **vendor** directory in your application.
+ 
+- This *autoload.php* file registers a custom autoloader that can autoload the PayPal SDK files, that allows you to access PHP SDK system in your application.
 
 ## Running the sample
 
    * Clone the repo and navigate to the samples folder.
-   * Samples have dependency on the sdk and you can use `Composer` to get the dependencies. Ensure that you have composer installed on your machine, navigate to the samples folder and run 'composer update --no-dev' to fetch the SDK.
-   * Optionally, update the bootstrap.php file with your own client Id and client secret.

    * Run any of the samples in the 'samples' folder to see what the APIs can do.

 To write an app that uses the SDK 
 
-   * Copy the composer.json file from the sample folder over to your project and run 'composer update --no-dev' to fetch all dependencies.
-   * Copy the sample configuration file sdk_config.ini to a location of your choice and let the SDK know your config path using the following define directive.

    * Obtain your clientId and client secret from the [developer portal](https://developer.paypal.com). You will use them to create a `OAuthTokenCredential` object.
    * Now you are all set to make your first API call. Create a resource object as per your need and call the relevant operation or invoke one of the static methods on your resource class.
     
 ```php

 ## SDK Configuration
 
-The samples in this repo pick the SDK configuration from the sdk_config.ini file. If you do not want to use an ini file or want to pick your configuration dynamically, you can use the `$apiContext->setConfig()` method to pass in the configuration as a hashmap. See the `sample/bootstrap.php` file for an example.
