+## Installing
 
-The next major release of D3, 4.0, is coming! See the [4.0 development branch](https://github.com/mbostock/d3/tree/4) and read the [new API reference](https://github.com/mbostock/d3/blob/4/README.md) to get ready.
+If you use NPM, `npm install d3`. Otherwise, download the [latest release](https://github.com/d3/d3/releases/latest). The released bundle supports AMD, CommonJS, and vanilla environments. Create a [custom bundle using Rollup](http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/bb09af4c39c79cffcde4) or your preferred bundler. You can also load directly from [d3js.org](https://d3js.org):
+
+```html
+<script src="https://d3js.org/d3.v4.js"></script>
+```
+
+For the minified version:
+
+```html
+<script src="https://d3js.org/d3.v4.min.js"></script>
+```
+
+You can also use the standalone D3 microlibraries. For example, [d3-selection](https://github.com/d3/d3-selection):
+
+```html
+<script src="https://d3js.org/d3-selection.v1.js"></script>
+```
+
