 Of course. [sbt-catalysts](https://github.com/typelevel/sbt-catalysts) is created particularly for this purpose. It also provides a g8 template so that you can run `sbt new typelevel/sbt-catalysts.g8` to quickly set up a project using Cats ecosystem libraries through this plugin. For more details, go to [sbt-catalysts](https://github.com/typelevel/sbt-catalysts). 
 
+## <a id="ammonite" href="#ammonite"></a>How to try Cats in a REPL? 
+
+The easiest way is probably using [Ammonite-REPL](http://ammonite.io/). Install it following the instructions there. Then in the amm console you can type in
+```scala
+interp.configureCompiler(_.settings.YpartialUnification.value = true)
+import $ivy.`org.typelevel::cats-core:1.0.1`, cats.implicits._
+```
+Or if you want, you can add these lines to `~/.ammonite/predef.sc` so that they are enabled every ammonite session.
