+### Running the CLI
+
+The CLI is currently published on [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/initium). You can run it using
+
+```
+npx initium
+```
+
+That will install the Initium CLI in your folder's `node_modules`.
+
+We recommend you not to try installing the CLI globally if you don't use a Node.js version manager (like `nvm`), as you can run into permission errors.

+This folder is here to generate an npm package that will allow user to run initium with either npm or npx.
+
+NOTE: This package doesn't contain the binaries.
+
+You can check the code in the `script` folder to see how this package will detect the platform and architecture of your machine and download the relevant binary from the github releases of this repo.
