 pnpm is a fast implementation of `npm install`.
 
 ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rstacruz/pnpm/gh-pages/screencast.gif)
+
+## Install
+
+Install it via npm.
+
+```
+npm install -g pnpm.js
+```
+
+Use `pnpm` in place of `npm`. It overrides `pnpm i` and `pnpm install`—all other commands will passthru to `npm`.
+
+```
+pnpm install lodash
+```
+
+## Preview
+
+`pnpm` will stay in `<1.0.0` until it's achieved feature parity with `npm install`.
+
