Most projects tell you exactly how to do that. Usually, it involves
adding a line like this to build.sbt:

libraryDependencies += "groupId" %% "artifactid" % "version"

This assumes it's a Scala dependency. Java dependencies replace that
%% with a %. Can you tell us what that project or dependency is?

I see.

Sure. That's Kiama:

Well, in the link they provided to SBT, on the table of contents to
the right, there's a "Library Dependencies" link which talks more
about this.

Have you created an sbt build file?

Yes, I have. And, I was reading through the SBT guide Kiama links to.
Yet, I hadn't still made it to the "Library Dependencies" section, nor
had I noticed it.
