-## how to use
-todo
+## Get started
+### Installing 
+Install the package and run the `generate` command to create the site folder.
+```sh
+npm install --save @koalanis/advent-pages
+npx @koalanis/advent-pages generate
+```
 
-## configuration
-the site's metadata is configured in a `advent.config.json` file. 
+## Configuration
+The static site's metadata is configured in a `advent.config.json` file.
+```json
+{
+ "lang": "rust",
+ "year": 2021,
+ "days": {
+ "1": {
+ "partOneDone": true,
+ "testDataOne": "./test_data.txt",
+ "codeOne": "./src/day1/partone.rs",
+ "answerOne": "./answer.txt",
 
-## under construction
-![d](https://http.cat/503)
+ "partTwoDone": true,
+ "testDataTwo": "./test_data_2.txt",
+ "codeTwo": "./src/day1/parttwo.rs",
+ "answerTwo": "./answer_2.txt",
+ },
+ ...
+ "25": {...}
+ }
+}
+```
+The fields `days[n].partOneDone` and `days[n].partOneTwo` are booleans that signify if a problem has been compelted, which in turn effects how the completion stars are rendered on the static site. 
+
+The other fields in `days[n]`, such as `testDataOne`, `codeOne`, etc, are relative paths that are used to inject source text blobs into the static site for display. You can use this to display your advent data & answers, and most importantly, your code solutions.
