+A CLI tool to convert Mermaid diagram files (.mmd) to SVG format.
+
+## Features
+

+- Easy command-line interface
+- Fast rendering with `beautiful-mermaid`
+- Input validation with Zod
+
+## Installation
+
+### 1. Set up the project
 
 ```bash
 bun install
 ```
 
-To run:
+### 2. Create symlink to your user bin directory
 
 ```bash
-bun run index.ts
+ln -s /Users/my_user_name/project_dir/mermaid-diagram-creator/bin/mmd-to-svg ~/.local/bin/mmd-to-svg
 ```
 
-This project was created using `bun init` in bun v1.2.21. [Bun](https://bun.com) is a fast all-in-one JavaScript runtime.
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+mmd-to-svg <input.mmd> <output.svg>
+```
+
+### Hot Reloading
+
+Using [entr](https://github.com/eradman/entr)
+
+```bash
+echo docs/diagrams/create_thing.mmd | entr mmd-to-svg ./docs/diagrams/create_thing.mmd ./docs/diagrams/create.svg
+```
+
+### Example
+
+```bash
+mmd-to-svg example.mmd diagram.svg
+```
+
+This will read the Mermaid diagram from `example.mmd` and output the rendered SVG to `diagram.svg`.
+
+### Example diagram file (example.mmd)
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[Start] --> B{Decision}
+    B -->|Yes| C[Action]
+    B -->|No| D[End]
+```
+
+## Development
+
+Run directly:
+
+```bash
+bun index.ts example.mmd output.svg
+```
+
+Built with [Bun](https://bun.com) - a fast all-in-one JavaScript runtime.
