-### Installing from [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/gedent)
+### Installation
 
-Once Rust and Cargo are in place, `gedent` can be installed from [crates.io](https://crates.io/) using Cargo:
+To install `gedent` we will build it from source by cloning the GitHub repository
+and running `cargo build`:
 
 ```bash
-cargo install gedent
+git clone https://github.com/caprilesport/gedent.git
+cd gedent
+cargo build --release
 ```
 
-This command downloads necessary dependencies, compiles the `gedent` binary, and installs it on your system.
-
-### Directly from [GitHub](https://github.com/caprilesport/gedent)
-
-Alternatively,
-you can install `gedent` directly from the GitHub repository
-using Cargo by running:
+After building,
+the binary will be located at `target/release/gedent`, to make it available system-wide, 
+you can symlink it to somewhere in your `$PATH`, e.g.:
 
 ```bash
-cargo install --git=https://github.com/caprilesport/gedent.git
+sudo ln -s $PWD/target/release/gedent /usr/local/bin
 ```
 
-### By cloning the GitHub repository
+After installing, the only thing left to do is copy the `templates` and
+`presets` directories, as well as the gedent.toml file to your system 
+configuration directory. 
 
-You can also build `gedent` from source by cloning the GitHub repository
-and running `cargo build`:
+### Linux and Mac
 
 ```bash
-git clone https://github.com/caprilesport/gedent.git
-cd gedent
-cargo build --release
+mkdir ~/.config/gedent
+cp -r ./templates ~/.config/gedent/
+cp -r ./presets ~/.config/gedent/
+cp ./gedent.toml ~/.config/gedent
 ```
 
-After building,
-the binary will be located at `target/release/gedent`.

 ## Configuration
 
 `gedent` supports per-project configuration files. If no config file (`gedent.toml`) is found in the current directory or its parent directories, the tool defaults to using the configuration at `~/.config/gedent` on Linux.
