+Installation
+============
+
+Required dependencies
+---------------------
+
+Required dependencies include:
+
+- `Python <https://docs.python.org/3/>`_ (3.11 or later)
+- `packaging <https://packaging.pypa.io>`_ (22.0 or later)
+- `numpy <https://numpy.org>`_ (1.25 or later)
+- `numcodecs[crc32c] <https://numcodecs.readthedocs.io>`_ (0.14 or later)
+- `typing_extensions <https://typing-extensions.readthedocs.io>`_ (4.9 or later)
+- `donfig <https://donfig.readthedocs.io>`_ (0.8 or later)
+
+pip
+---
+
+Zarr is available on `PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/zarr/>`_. Install it using ``pip``:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    $ pip install zarr
+
+There are a number of optional dependency groups you can install for extra functionality.
+These can be installed using ``pip install "zarr[<extra>]"``, e.g. ``pip install "zarr[gpu]"``
+
+- ``gpu``: support for GPUs
+- ``remote``: support for reading/writing to remote data stores
+
+Additional optional dependencies include ``rich``, ``universal_pathlib``. These must be installed separately.
+
+conda
+-----
+
+Zarr is also published to `conda-forge <https://conda-forge.org>`_. Install it using ``conda``:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    $ conda install -c conda-forge zarr
+
+Conda does not support optional dependencies, so you will have to manually install any packages
+needed to enable extra functionality.
+
+Dependency support
+------------------
+Zarr has endorsed `Scientific-Python SPEC 0 <https://scientific-python.org/specs/spec-0000/>`_ and now follows the version support window as outlined below:
+
+- Python: 36 months after initial release
+- Core package dependencies (e.g. NumPy): 24 months after initial release
+
+Development
