 ## Setup
 
-First, you have to set up an Eclipse with the [core Gamma plugins](https://github.com/ftsrg/gamma/tree/theta-integration/plugins/core).
-
-Next, you have to set up [Theta](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta), more specifically the [`theta-xsts-cli` tool](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta/tree/master/subprojects/xsts-cli).
-You can check out the [instructions](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta/tree/master/subprojects/xsts-cli) for various options for setting up Theta, but we suggest downloading a [binary release](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta/releases).
-For Gamma, only the `theta-xsts-cli.jar` is required in addition to the libraries in the [_lib_ folder](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta/tree/master/lib).
-Make sure to put the libraries onto your PATH. 
-Furthermore, you have to create an environment variable with the name of `THETA_XSTS_CLI_PATH`, which points to the `theta-xsts-cli.jar` binary.
-
-Then, you have to set up the plugins in this folder:
-1. Import all Eclipse projects from the the _xsts_ folder.
-1. Generate the Model plugins of the `hu.bme.mit.gamma.statechart.lowlevel.model`, `hu.bme.mit.gamma.xsts.model` and `hu.bme.mit.gamma.lowlevel.xsts.transformation.traceability` using the `.genmodel` file in the respective `model` folder. The generation of additional plugins (Edit, Editor, Tests) is not necessary.
+1. Set up an Eclipse with the [core Gamma plugins](https://github.com/ftsrg/gamma/tree/theta-integration/plugins/core).
+1. Set up [Theta](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta), more specifically the [`theta-xsts-cli` tool](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta/tree/master/subprojects/xsts-cli) by going into the _theta-bin_ subfolder and executing `Get-Theta.ps1` (Windows) or `get-theta.sh` (Linux). The script will download the required binary and libraries.
+    - _Alternatively, you can check out the [instructions](https://github.com/ftsrg/theta/tree/master/subprojects/xsts-cli) for other options (e.g., build from source). For Gamma, only the `theta-xsts-cli.jar` and the Z3 libraries are required._
+1. Put the downloaded libraries (dll/so files) in the _theta-bin_ folder onto your `PATH`.
+1. Create an environment variable with the name of `THETA_XSTS_CLI_PATH`, which points to the downloaded `theta-xsts-cli.jar` binary.
+1. Set up the plugins in this folder:
+    1. Import all Eclipse projects from the the _xsts_ folder.
+    1. Generate the Model plugins of the `hu.bme.mit.gamma.statechart.lowlevel.model`, `hu.bme.mit.gamma.xsts.model` and `hu.bme.mit.gamma.lowlevel.xsts.transformation.traceability` using the `.genmodel` file in the respective `model` folder. The generation of additional plugins (Edit, Editor, Tests) is not necessary.
 
 Now you can use the framework in one of the following ways: you either run a runtime Eclipse and work in that or install the plugins into your host Eclipse.
