 [Changelog](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/blob/main/packages/wxt/CHANGELOG.md)
 
-WXT provides a simplified API to replace the `browser.storage.*` APIs. Use the `storage` auto-import from `wxt/storage` or import it manually to get started:
+A simplified wrapper around the extension storage APIs.
+
+## Installation
+
+### With WXT
+
+This module is built-in to WXT, so you don't need to install anything.
 
 ```ts
 import { storage } from 'wxt/storage';
 ```
 
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> To use the `wxt/storage` API, the `"storage"` permission must be added to the manifest:
->
-> ```ts
-> // wxt.config.ts
-> export default defineConfig({
->   manifest: {
->     permissions: ['storage'],
->   },
-> });
-> ```
+If you use auto-imports, `storage` is auto-imported for you, so you don't even need to import it!
+
+### Without WXT
+
+Install the NPM package:
+
+```sh
+npm i @wxt-dev/storage
+pnpm add @wxt-dev/storage
+yarn add @wxt-dev/storage
+bun add @wxt-dev/storage
+```
+

+import { storage } from '@wxt-dev/storage';
