 ************
 Installation
 ************
+
+---
+Pip
+---
+
+GolemFlavor can be installed using ``pip``:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    pip install git+https://github.com/ShiveshM/GolemFlavor.git
+
+This installs GolemFlavor, along with all the necessary dependencies such as
+NumPy and SciPy.
+
+GolemFlavor uses the IceCube software `GolemFit: The HESE
+fitter <https://github.com/IceCubeOpenSource/GolemFit>`_ to fit with IceCube
+Astrophysical Flavor data. This software is proprietary and so access is
+currently limited to IceCube collaborators. A simple Gaussian likelihood can be
+used as a substitute for test purposes if this requirement is not found.
