 Kùzu is being actively developed at University of Waterloo as a feature-rich and usable GDBMS. Kùzu is available under a permissible license. So try it out and help us make it better! We welcome your feedback and feature requests.
 
+## Build
+To build from source code, Kùzu requires Cmake(>=3.11), Python 3, and a compiler that supports `C++20`.  
+- Perform a full clean build
+  - `make clean && make`
+- Run tests (optional)
+  - `make test`
+
+After build, our CLI binary `kuzu_shell` is available under the directory `build/release/tools/shell/`.
+
 ## Installation
-Please refer to [our website](https://kuzudb.com/) for installation and usage instructions.
+### Precompiled binary
+Precompiled binary of our latest release can be downloaded [here](https://github.com/kuzudb/kuzu/releases/tag/0.0.1).  
+### Python package
+Our Python package can be directly install through pip.
+```
+pip install kuzu
+```
+
+
+For more installation and usage instructions, please refer to [our website](https://kuzudb.com/).
+
+## Example
+We take `tinysnb` as an example graph, which is under `dataset/tinysnb` in our source code, and can be downloaded [here](https://github.com/kuzudb/kuzu/tree/master/dataset/tinysnb).
 
+### CLI
+#### Start CLI
+```
+./build/release/tools/shell/kuzu_shell -i "./test.db"
+```
+#### Schema Definition
+```cypher
+kuzu> CREATE NODE TABLE person (ID INt64, fName STRING, gender INT64, isStudent BOOLEAN, isWorker BOOLEAN, age INT64, eyeSight DOUBLE, birthdate DATE, registerTime TIMESTAMP, lastJobDuration interval, workedHours INT64[], usedNames STRING[], courseScoresPerTerm INT64[][], PRIMARY KEY (ID));
+kuzu> CREATE REL TABLE knows (FROM person TO person, date DATE, meetTime TIMESTAMP, validInterval INTERVAL, comments STRING[], MANY_MANY);
+```
 
-## Development
-For development, Kùzu requires Cmake(>=3.11), Python 3, and a compiler that supports `C++20`. 
+#### Data Import
+```cypher
+kuzu> COPY person FROM "dataset/tinysnb/vPerson.csv" (HEADER=true);
+kuzu> COPY knows FROM "dataset/tinysnb/eKnows.csv";
+```
 
-### Build
+After creating node/rel tables, and importing csv files, you can now run queries!
+```cypher
+kuzu> MATCH (b:person)<-[e1:knows]-(a:person)-[e2:knows]->(c:person) RETURN COUNT(*);
+```
+
+### Python
+```python
+import kuzu
 
-- To do a full clean build
-    - `make clean`
-    - `make NUM_THREADS=x`
-- To test (after running the build)
-    - `make test`
+db = kuzu.database('./testpy')
+conn = kuzu.connection(db)
+conn.execute("CREATE NODE TABLE person (ID INt64, fName STRING, gender INT64, isStudent BOOLEAN, isWorker BOOLEAN, age INT64, eyeSight DOUBLE, birthdate DATE, registerTime TIMESTAMP, lastJobDuration interval, workedHours INT64[], usedNames STRING[], courseScoresPerTerm INT64[][], PRIMARY KEY (ID));")
+conn.execute("CREATE REL TABLE knows (FROM person TO person, date DATE, meetTime TIMESTAMP, validInterval INTERVAL, comments STRING[], MANY_MANY);")
+conn.execute("COPY person FROM 'dataset/tinysnb/vPerson.csv' (HEADER=true);")
+conn.execute("COPY knows FROM 'dataset/tinysnb/eKnows.csv';")
+result = conn.execute("MATCH (b:person)<-[e1:knows]-(a:person)-[e2:knows]->(c:person) RETURN COUNT(*)")
+while result.hasNext():
+  print(result.getNext())
+```
