+# Enablement Guide for Impact Framework (IF)
+
+## What is the Impact Framework?
+
+The **Impact Framework (IF)** empowers you to calculate and understand the environmental impact of your software. It comes with a standard library of built-in plugins, referred to as builtins, and an Explorer for discovering and installing third-party plugins.
+
+## How to Use the Impact Framework?
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+Before getting started, ensure you have the following:
+
+1. **Node.js**: Installed and configured.
+2. **NPM**: Comes with Node.js; ensure it’s updated.
+3. **Access to Documentation**: Familiarize yourself with the [IF documentation](https://if.greensoftware.foundation/).
+4. **Basic YAML Knowledge**: For creating and managing manifest files.
+
+## Steps to Enable the Impact Framework
+
+### Step 1: Installation
+
+Install the latest version of IF globally using NPM:
+
+```sh
+npm install -g "@grnsft/if"
+```
+
+`IF` provides multiple command-line tools, with the primary tool being `if-run`.
+
+### Step 2: Working with Command-Line Tools
+
+1. `if-run`: Execute Manifest Files
+
+   - Description: Executes manifest files to calculate impact.
+   - Manifest File: A YAML file central to IF functionality. It contains configurations, application architecture, input data, and serves as a portable, shareable, human-readable document for audits.
+   - Usage:
+
+   ```sh
+   if-run --manifest <path-to-your-manifest-file>
+   ```
+
+More about if-run [here](https://if.greensoftware.foundation/reference/cli#if-run).
+
+2. `if-env`: Create Local Development Environments
+
+   - Description: Sets up a local environment for running manifests.
+   - Usage:
+
+   ```sh
+   mkdir my-manifest && cd my-manifest
+   if-env
+   ```
+
+Find details in the [documentation](https://if.greensoftware.foundation/reference/cli#if-env).
+
+3. `if-check`: Verify Manifests
+
+   - Description: Combines the functionalities of if-env and if-diff to verify manifest files with outputs and execution sections.
+   - Usage:
+
+   ```sh
+   # Check a specific manifest file
+   if-check -m <path-to-your-manifest-file>
+
+   # Check all manifests in a directory
+   if-check -d /path-to-your-manifests
+   ```
+
+Explore more in the [documentation](https://if.greensoftware.foundation/reference/cli#if-check).
+
+4. `if-csv`: Save Data to CSV
+
+   - Description: Saves calculated impact data to a CSV file.
+   - Usage:
+
+   ```sh
+   if-csv -m ./my-manifest.yml -p carbon
+   ```
+
+Read more in the [documentation](https://if.greensoftware.foundation/reference/cli#if-csv).
+
+5. `if-diff`: Compare Manifests or Outputs
+
+   - Description: Compares two manifest or output files to identify differences.
+   - Usage:
+
+   ```sh
+   if-diff <file1> <file2>
+   ```
+
+Details are available in the [documentation](https://if.greensoftware.foundation/reference/cli#if-diff).
+
+### Step 3: Explore Plugins
+
+- Built-In Plugins: Utilize IF’s built-ins for common environmental impact assessments.
+- Third-Party Plugins: Visit the Explorer to discover and install third-party plugins tailored to your needs.
+
+### Step 4: Help and Guidance
+
+For assistance with any command, use the --help flag:
+
+```sh
+if-run --help
+```
