To begin, cryptographic keys are generated with the repository tool. However,
before metadata files can be validated by clients and target files fetched in a
secure manner, public keys must be pinned to particular metadata roles and
metadata signed by role's private keys. After covering keys, the four required
top-level metadata are created next. Examples are given demonstrating the
expected work flow, where the metadata roles are created in a specific order,
keys imported and loaded, and metadata signed and written to disk. Lastly,
target files are added to the repository, and a custom delegation performed to
extend the default roles of the repository. By the end, a fully populated TUF
repository is generated that can be used by clients to securely download
