 ## Usage
 
+### Prerequisites
+
+To use this SDK, ensure you have the following prerequisites:
+
+- Foundry Local must be installed and available on the PATH
+- Rust 1.70.0 or later
+
+### Create a new Rust project:
+
+```bash
+cargo new hello-foundry-local
+cd hello-foundry-local
+```
+
+### Install crates
+
+Install the following Rust crates using Cargo:
+
+```bash
+cargo add foundry-local anyhow env_logger serde_json
+cargo add reqwest --features json
+cargo add tokio --features full
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can add these dependencies manually to your `Cargo.toml` file.
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+anyhow = "1.0.98"
+env_logger = "0.11.8"
+foundry-local = "0.1.0"
+reqwest = { version = "0.12.19", features = ["json"] }
+serde_json = "1.0.140"
+tokio = { version = "1.45.1", features = ["full"] }
+```
+
+### Update the `main.rs` file
+
+Replace the contents of `src/main.rs` with the following code to create a simple application that interacts with the Foundry Local service:
+
 ```rust
 use foundry_local::FoundryLocalManager;
 use anyhow::Result;
