To create a Heat stack in the webinterface you should navigate to "Orchestration → Stacks" and click the "Launch Stack" button. There you can either select template-files from your computer, or you can paste the templates into text-fields.
After a little bit of time the stack should be "Create Complete", and you can now browse the networks/routers/security group pages to see the newly created resources.
Creating a Heat Stack using the command line
Creating a heat-stack using the commandline is done through the use of a single "openstack stack create" command. The stacks can be listed afterwards using the "openstack stack list" command.
