 developer ID and certificates, and for dev to be able to have local settings
 without needing to check in anything into source control.
 
+You can do this in one of two ways: using the included `setup.sh` script or by creating the folder structure and file manually. 
+
+##### Using `setup.sh`
+
+- Open Terminal and `cd` into the NetNewsWire directory. 
+- Run this command to ensure you have execution rights for the script: `sudo chmod 755 setup.sh`
+- Execute the script with the following command: `./setup.sh` and complete the answers.
+
+##### Manually 
+
 Make a directory SharedXcodeSettings next to where you have this repository.
