do people need pod init or pod install when they clone the project?

I have a question about pod files. I'm writing a README, and I'm not sure if other people need to run pod init and pod install when they clone my project to their Xcode. I used three cocoapods, 'SwiftyJSON', 'Alamofire', 'Kingfisher'.

I just need to submit my project to other people and the app is not on the app store, so I want to know how they can run my project.

After downloading your project a user has to execute the command

pod install

Differences between init and install commands:

To create the PodFile, execute

pod init

To download all the dependencies defined in Podfile, execute

pod install

pod init is only used for initiating the pods, to install the pods for a project whether from a repo or clone all you will need is pod install. Just make sure you commit the pod files along with the project.
