 #### Topologies Page
 
+Heron UI is a user interface that uses the Heron Tracker to display detailed, colorful visual representations of topologies, including the logical and physical plan for each topology. 
+
+Start the Heron tracker using `heron-tracker &` which uses default heron_tracker.yaml configuration file. It's a centralized gateway for cluster-wide information about topologies, including which topologies are running, being launched, being killed, etc. It exposes Json Restful endpoint and relies on Zookeeper nodes.
+
+Launc the Heron UI by the command:
+
+```bash
+heron-ui &
+```
+
+By default Heron UI will be started at `http://localhost:8888`
 
 Review comment:
   I think by default the Heron UI is served at `localhost:8889` right?
