 Interact with node streams in object mode using [`Pipes`]!
 
-## Example
-```purescript
-import Prelude
-
-import Effect.Aff (launchAff_)
-import Effect (Effect)
-import Effect.Class (liftEffect)
-import Effect.Console (log)
-import Pipes.Prelude ((>->))
-import Pipes.Prelude as Pipes
-import Pipes.Core as Pipes.Core
-import Pipes.Node.FS.Stream as FS
-import Pipes.Node.Zlib as Zlib
-import Pipes.CSV.Parse as CSV.Parse
-
--- == my-zipped-data.csv ==
--- id,foo,is_deleted
--- 1,hello,f
--- 2,goodbye,t
-
--- Logs:
--- {id: 1, foo: "hello", is_deleted: false}
--- {id: 2, foo: "goodbye", is_deleted: true}
-main :: Effect Unit
-main =
-  Pipes.Core.runEffect

+## Install
 ```bash
 spago install node-stream-pipes
 ```
 
+## Usage
+### Node Streams
+#### Raw Streams
+Raw `objectMode` Node streams are represented in `Node.Stream.Object`:
+ - `Writable a` accepts chunks of type `a`
+ - `Readable a` emits chunks of type `a`
+ - `Transform a b` transforms chunks from `a` to `b`
+
+Non-Object streams can also be represented with these types; for example an `fs.WriteStream`
+can be coerced to `Writable Buffer` without issue.
+
+Interop between these types and `Node.Stream` are provided in `Node.Stream.Object`:
+- `unsafeFrom{String,Buffer}{Writable,Readable,Transform}`
+- `unsafeCoerce{Writable,Readable,Transform}`
+
+#### Pipes
+Streams in `Node.Stream.Object` can be converted to `Producer`s, `Consumer`s and `Pipe`s with `Pipes.Node.Stream`:
+ - `fromReadable :: forall a. <Readable a> -> Producer (Maybe a) <Aff> Unit`
+ - `fromWritable :: forall a. <Writable a> -> Consumer (Maybe a) <Aff> Unit`
+ - `fromTransform :: forall a b. <Transform a b> -> Pipe (Maybe a) (Maybe b) <Aff> Unit`
+
+#### EOS Marker
+Normally, pipe computations will not be executed once any computation in a pipeline exits.
+
+To allow for resource cleanup and awareness that the stream is about to close,
+`Maybe a` is used occasionally in this package as an End-of-Stream marker:
+
+```purescript
+-- foo.txt is "hello, world!\n"
+chunks <- Pipes.Collect.toArray $ Pipes.FS.read "foo.txt" >-> Pipes.Node.Stream.inEOS (Pipes.Buffer.toString UTF8)
+chunks `shouldEqual` [Just "hello, world!\n", Nothing]
+```
+
+Pipes from `a -> b` unaware of EOS can be lifted to `Maybe a -> Maybe b` with `Pipes.Node.Stream.inEOS`.
+
+Producers of `Maybe a` can drop the EOS marker and emit `a` with `Pipes.Node.Stream.unEOS`.
+
+Producers of `a` can have an EOS marker added with `Pipes.Node.Stream.withEOS`.
+
+#### Example
+`Pipes.PassThrough.js`
+```javascript
+import {PassThrough} from 'stream'
+
+export const makePassThrough = () => new PassThrough()
+```
+
+`Pipes.PassThrough.purs`
+```purescript
+module Pipes.PassThrough where
+
+import Prelude
+
+import Effect (Effect)
+import Effect.Class (liftEffect)
+import Effect.Aff (Aff)
+import Pipes.Core (Pipe)
+import Node.Stream.Object as ObjectStream
+import Pipes.Node.Stream as Pipes.Node.Stream
+
+type PassThroughStream a = ObjectStream.Transform a a
+
+foreign import makeRaw :: Effect PassThroughStream
+
+passThrough :: forall a. Pipe a a Aff Unit
+passThrough = do
+  raw <- liftEffect $ makeRaw
+  Pipes.Node.Stream.fromTransform raw
+```
+
+### Utilities
+This package provides utilities that explicitly use `MonadRec` to ensure stack-safety
+when dealing with producers of large amounts of data.
+
+- `Pipes.Collect` provides stack-safe utilities for executing a pipeline and collecting results into a collection, `Buffer`, `Monoid` etc.
+- `Pipes.Construct` provides stack-safe utilities for creating producers from in-memory collections.
+- `Pipes.Util` provides some miscellaneous utilities missing from `pipes`.
+
+### Zlib
+Pipes for compression & decompression using `zlib` are provided in `Pipes.Node.Zlib`.
+
+### FS
+Read files with:
+- `Pipes.Node.FS.read <path>`
+- `Pipes.Node.FS.read' <WriteStreamOptions> <path>`
+
+```purescript
+Pipes.Collect.toStringWith UTF8 $ Pipes.Node.FS.read "foo.txt" >-> Pipes.Stream.unEOS
+```
+
+Write files with:
+ - `Pipes.Node.FS.write' <WriteStreamOptions> <path>`
+ - `Pipes.Node.FS.trunc <path>`
+ - `Pipes.Node.FS.create <path>`
+ - `Pipes.Node.FS.append <path>`
+
+```purescript
+  Pipes.Stream.withEOS (
+    Pipes.Construct.eachArray ["id,name", "1,henry", "2,suzie"]
+    >-> Pipes.Util.intersperse "\n"
+    >-> Pipes.Buffer.fromString UTF8
+  )
+  >-> Pipes.Node.FS.create "foo.csv"
+```
