Installing Rumi Framework is quiet easy as you can install it just like another Joomla! template. These steps show you the basic installation of Rumi Framework:

1. Login into your Joomla! administration page (back-end system) where you can usually find it at http://www.yourdomain.com/administrator/
   
   
2. Go to Extensions menu, then choose Install/Uninstall menu, see picture below:
   
   
   
3. Then click Browse button, then choose the Rumi Framework installer file, see picture below:
   
   
   
4. After that, click Upload File and Install button to install Rumi Framework. A short notification will appear if your installation is success, see picture below:
   
   
   
5. To activate Rumi Framework as your default template, go to Extensions menu again, then choose Template Manager menu. See picture below:
   
   
   
6. Then click radio button in the left side of Rumi Framework and click Default button in the upper right to activate Rumi Framework and make it your default template, see picture below:
   
   
   
7. To test that Rumi Framework has become your default template, click Preview button in the most top right of the site. You will see a notification error such as "No skin selected" on the site (front-end system). This error means that you need to install a Rumi Framework Skin, or if you just install a Rumi Framework with Skin included, you need to activate it (see "Install a Skin for Rumi Framework" tutorial).
