 Use the following commands to compile and run a standalone MinIO server from source.

+## Build Docker Image
+
+You can use the `docker build .` command to build a Docker image on your local host machine.
+You must first [build MinIO](#install-from-source) and ensure the `minio` binary exists in the project root.
+
+The following command builds the Docker image using the default `Dockerfile` in the root project directory with the repository and image tag `myminio:minio`
+
+```sh
+docker build -t myminio:minio .
+```
+
+Use `docker image ls` to confirm the image exists in your local repository.
+You can run the server using standard Docker invocation:
+
+```sh
+docker run -p 9000:9000 -p 9001:9001 myminio:minio server /tmp/minio --console-address :9001
+```
+
+Complete documentation for building Docker containers, managing custom images, or loading images into orchestration platforms is out of scope for this documentation.
+You can modify the `Dockerfile` and `dockerscripts/socker-entrypoint.sh` as-needed to reflect your specific image requirements.
+
+See the [MinIO Container](https://docs.min.io/community/minio-object-store/operations/deployments/baremetal-deploy-minio-as-a-container.html#deploy-minio-container) documentation for more guidance on running MinIO within a Container image.
+
+## Install using Helm Charts
+
+There are two paths for installing MinIO onto Kubernetes infrastructure:
+
+- Use the [MinIO Operator](https://github.com/minio/operator)
+- Use the community-maintained [Helm charts](https://github.com/minio/minio/tree/master/helm/minio)
+
+See the [MinIO Documentation](https://docs.min.io/community/minio-object-store/operations/deployments/kubernetes.html) for guidance on deploying using the Operator.
+The Community Helm chart has instructions in the folder-level README.
