+### Install script
+
+FLAP ships a bash script that is able to automatize the download and build steps. The script, `install.sh` has the following usage:
+
+```shell
+→ ./install.sh
+Install script of FLAP
+Usage:
+
+install.sh --help|-?
+    Print this usage output and exit
+
+install.sh --download|-d <arg> [--verbose|-v]
+    Download the project
+
+    --download|-d [arg]  Download the project, arg=git|wget to download with git or wget respectively
+    --verbose|-v         Output verbose mode activation
+
+install.sh --build|-b <arg> [--verbose|-v]
+    Build the project
+
+    --build|-b [arg]  Build the project, arg=fobis|make|cmake to build with FoBiS.py, GNU Make or CMake respectively
+    --verbose|-v      Output verbose mode activation
+
+Examples:
+
+install.sh --download git
+install.sh --build make
+install.sh --download wget --build cmake
+```
+
+> The script does not cover all possibilities.
+
+The script is able to:
+
++ download a new fresh-clone of the latest master-release by means of:
+  + git
+  + wget
++ build a fresh-clone project as static-linked library by means of:
+  + FoBiS.py
+  + GNU Make
+  + CMake
