-## 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 |
