+
+    ### Installation
+    
+    #### By downloading binary from the release
+
+    For instance, if you are using Linux on an AMD64 architecture:
+    ```shell
+    # Download the binary
+    curl -LO https://github.com/{{ .Env.GITHUB_REPOSITORY }}/releases/download/{{ .Tag }}/{{ .ProjectName }}-linux-amd64
+
+    # Move the binary in to your PATH
+    mv vendir-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/vendir
+
+    # Make the binary executable
+    chmod +x /usr/local/bin/vendir
+    ```
+
+    #### Via Homebrew (macOS or Linux)
+    ```shell
+    $ brew tap carvel-dev/carvel
+    $ brew install vendir
+    $ vendir version  
+    ```
+
+    ### Verify checksums file signature
+
+    The checksums file provided within the artifacts attached to this release is signed using [Cosign](https://docs.sigstore.dev/cosign/overview/) with GitHub OIDC. To validate the signature of this file, run the following commands:
+
+    ```shell
+    # Download the checksums file, certificate and signature
+    curl -LO https://github.com/{{ .Env.GITHUB_REPOSITORY }}/releases/download/{{ .Tag }}/checksums.txt
+    curl -LO https://github.com/{{ .Env.GITHUB_REPOSITORY }}/releases/download/{{ .Tag }}/checksums.txt.pem
+    curl -LO https://github.com/{{ .Env.GITHUB_REPOSITORY }}/releases/download/{{ .Tag }}/checksums.txt.sig
+
+    # Verify the checksums file
+    cosign verify-blob checksums.txt \
+      --certificate checksums.txt.pem \
+      --signature checksums.txt.sig \
+      --certificate-identity-regexp=https://github.com/{{ .Env.GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER }} \
+      --certificate-oidc-issuer=https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com
+    ```
+
+    ### Verify binary integrity
+
+    To verify the integrity of the downloaded binary, you can utilize the checksums file after having validated its signature.
+    ```shell
+    # Verify the binary using the checksums file
+    sha256sum -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing
+    ```
