+[MELPA Stable](http://stable.melpa.org) and [MELPA](http://melpa.org).
+
+If you wanted to install the version of CIDER which is what is to be found in
+the `master` branch, declare the following in your Emacs initialization file
+(`.emacs` or `init.el`):
+
+```el
+(use-package cider
+ :ensure t)
+```
+
+However, if you wanted to be a bit more conservative and only use the stable
+releases of CIDER, you'd declare the following:
+
+```el
+(use-package cider
+ :ensure t
+ :pin melpa-stable)
+```
