 ## Usage
 
-For further information read the linked docs at the top of this readme.
+`@push.rocks/smartcsv` is a powerful library designed for handling CSV data efficiently and in a developer-friendly manner. This document will guide you through various use cases and demonstrate the flexibility and capabilities of `@push.rocks/smartcsv`.

-| By using this npm module you agree to our [privacy policy](https://lossless.gmbH/privacy.html)
+### Importing the Module
 
-[![repo-footer](https://pushrocks.gitlab.io/assets/repo-footer.svg)](https://maintainedby.lossless.com)
+First, import `Csv` from the `@push.rocks/smartcsv` package into your TypeScript file:
+
+```typescript
+import { Csv } from '@push.rocks/smartcsv';
+```
+
+### Creating a CSV Instance from a String
+
+You can create a `Csv` instance directly from a string. This is particularly useful when you have CSV data as a string from a file or an API response:
+
+```typescript
+const csvString = `Name, Age, Occupation\nJohn Doe, 28, Software Developer\nJane Smith, 32, Data Scientist`;
+
+const csvOptions = {
+  headers: true, // indicates the first row contains headers
+  unquote: true, // unquote values if necessary
+  trimSpace: true, // trim spaces around values
+  removeBomMarkers: true // remove BOM markers if present
+};
+
+const csvInstance = await Csv.createCsvFromString(csvString, csvOptions);
+```
+
+### Exporting CSV Data as JSON
+
+Once you have a `Csv` instance, you can convert the CSV data into JSON objects for easier manipulation and access:
+
+```typescript
+const jsonData = await csvInstance.exportAsObject();
+console.log(jsonData);
+```
+
+This will output:
+
+```json
+[
+  { "Name": "John Doe", "Age": "28", "Occupation": "Software Developer" },
+  { "Name": "Jane Smith", "Age": "32", "Occupation": "Data Scientist" }
+]
+```
+
+### Creating a CSV String from an Array of Objects
+
+If you have an array of objects and wish to convert it into a CSV string, `@push.rocks/smartcsv` offers a straightforward approach:
+
+```typescript
+const arrayOfObjects = [
+  { Name: "John Doe", Age: 28, Occupation: "Software Developer" },
+  { Name: "Jane Smith", Age: 32, Occupation: "Data Scientist" }
+];
+
+const csvString = await Csv.createCsvStringFromArray(arrayOfObjects);
+console.log(csvString);
+```
+
+This will generate a CSV string that represents the array of objects provided.
+
+### Advanced Usage
+
+#### Custom Separator Detection
+
+By default, `@push.rocks/smartcsv` intelligently detects the separator used in the input CSV data (either a comma `,` or a semicolon `;`). You can rely on this automatic detection or specify preferred options for finer control over how your CSV data is handled.
+
+#### Handling Quotes and BOM Markers
+
+The library is capable of processing CSV files that include quoted fields, optionally removing quotes where necessary. Similarly, it can handle Byte Order Mark (BOM) markers at the start of UTF-8 encoded files, ensuring that the text is interpreted correctly.
+
+#### Trimming Spaces
+
+For data cleanliness, `@push.rocks/smartcsv` can trim leading and trailing spaces from values in the CSV, ensuring that the resulting data is neat and uniform.
+
+### Conclusion
+
+`@push.rocks/smartcsv` offers a comprehensive set of features for working with CSV data in TypeScript, providing flexibility, ease of use, and powerful data manipulation capabilities. Whether you're importing CSV data from a file, converting JSON to CSV, or manipulating CSV strings directly in your application, `@push.rocks/smartcsv` has you covered.
