+![Auto-generate docs](https://example.com/auto-generate-docs.png)
 
-To customize the documentation generation, modify the `dev-docs.json` file in your project root:
+The extension can automatically generate documentation by analyzing your code and extracting relevant information.
 
-1. Create or open `dev-docs.json`
-2. Add an `ai` object with customization options
+### AI-Assisted Editing 
 
-Example `dev-docs.json`:
+![AI editing](https://example.com/ai-editing.png)
 
-```json
-{
-  "ai": {
-    "internalTypeFilters": ["class", "method", "function"],
-    "codeFilters": [],
-    "nameFilters": [],
-    "docSubFolder": "api/",
-    "merge": true,
-    "externalDocPrompt": "Generate comprehensive API documentation"
-  }
-}
-```
+Get AI-powered suggestions and auto-completion as you write documentation to improve quality and consistency.
+

+
+Easily manage external documentation separate from your code while keeping it in sync.
 
-Key customization options:
+### Version Control Integration
 
-- `internalTypeFilters`: Specify which code elements to document
-- `docSubFolder`: Set the output folder for generated docs
-- `merge`: Combine multiple elements into a single document
-- `externalDocPrompt`: Customize the AI prompt for doc generation
+![Version control](https://example.com/version-control.png)
 
-![dev-docs.json config](https://docs.dev/img/dev-docs-json-config.png)
+Documentation changes are tracked alongside code changes in your version control system.
 
-The `generateBySymbols` function in `src/AiServices.ts` uses these settings to generate documentation.
+## Using the Extension
 
-## Step 3: Review and Edit
+1. Install the Dev-Docs extension from the VS Code marketplace
+2. Open your project in VS Code 
+3. Access Dev-Docs commands via:
+   - Command palette (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + P)
+   - Context menu (right-click)
+   - Dev-Docs sidebar
 
-After running the command:
+![Accessing commands](https://example.com/accessing-commands.png)
 
-1. Check the `docs` folder (or your specified `docSubFolder`) for generated files
-2. Review and edit the generated content as needed
-3. Commit changes to your repository
+4. Configure options in dev-docs.json file
+5. Use commands like "Generate Docs" to create documentation
 
-![Generated docs](https://docs.dev/img/generated-docs-folder.png)
+## Configuration Options
+
+Key options in dev-docs.json:
+
+```json
+{
+  "ai": {
+    "components": {
+      "template": "path/to/template.md"  
+    },
+    "docPath": "docs/api",
+    "branch": "main"
+  }
+}
+```
 
-By following these steps and customizing the `dev-docs.json`, you can efficiently generate and manage external documentation for your project using the VS Code extension.
+Customize settings to fit your project's documentation needs.
