 # json-py
 
-Simple JSON-parser written in python.
\ No newline at end of file
+Simple JSON-parser written in python.
+
+Inspired by [Phil Eaton's article](https://notes.eatonphil.com/writing-a-simple-json-parser.html).
+
+## Example usage
+```python
+import json_py
+print(json_py.from_json('{"hello": ["world", "!", 69], 3: 9.1}'))
+# {'hello': ['world', '!', 69], 3: 9.1}
+```
+
+## Todo
+Implement `json_py.to_json()`
