+
+## Installation
+
+### TypeScript/JavaScript
+
+```bash
+npm install @bridgecrew/cdk-validator-checkov
+```
+
+### Python
+
+```bash
+pip install cdk-validator-checkov
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+To use this plugin in your CDK application add it to the CDK App.
+
+### Python
+
+```python
+from cdk_validator_checkov import CheckovValidator
+
+...
+
+App(
+  policy_validation_beta1=[
+    CheckovValidator()
+  ]
+)
+```
+
+By default, the `CheckovValidator` plugin comes with all `checkov`
+[built-in checks for CloudFormation](https://www.checkov.io/5.Policy%20Index/cloudformation.html).
+In order to disable any of the checks or just run a subset of them you can use the `check` or `skipCheck` property.
+
+```python
+CheckovValidator(
+  check= ['CKV_AWS_18', 'CKV_AWS_21']
+)
+```
+
+```python
+CheckovValidator(
+  skipCheck= ['CKV_AWS_18', 'CKV_AWS_21']
+}
+```
+
+
+### TypeScript
+
+```ts
+new App({
+  policyValidationBeta1: [
+    new CheckovValidator(),
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+Specify checks:
+
+```ts
+new CheckovValidator({
+    check: ['CKV_AWS_18', 'CKV_AWS_21'],
+});
+```
+
+Skip checks:
+
+```ts
+new CheckovValidator({
+    skipCheck: ['CKV_AWS_18', 'CKV_AWS_21'],
+});
+```
