 A utility to facilitate deck control via Blackmagic SDK.
 
 maintainer: @dericed.
+
+## installation
+
+### via homebrew
+
+Homebrew is recommended to install deckcontrol:
+
+`brew install amiaopensource/amioas/deckcontrol`
+
+### to build from source
+
+The BMDSK variable must be set to the path of the Blackmagic Decklink SDK. The SDK is available at https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/ as "Desktop Video #{version} SDK".
+
+```
+make BMDSK=/path/to/decklink/sdk
+```
