-## Supported file types:
-* .yml .yaml
-* .json
+## Usage
+smartfile is an approach of being one tool to handle files in diverse environments.
+
+### Smartfile Sections
+smartfile thinks in sections:
+
+section | description
+--- | ---
+fs | (object) gets data from fs to somewhere
+memory | gets data from memory to somewhere
+remote | gets data from remote locations to somewhere
+interpreter | (object) handles yaml and json
+smartfile | (class) a virtual representation of a file, alternative to vinyl file format
+
+For more information read the docs
