-Graphiti is a resource-oriented framework that sits on top of your models (usually ActiveRecord) and exposes them via a JSON:API-compliant interface. It abstracts common concerns like serialization, filtering, sorting, pagination, and sideloading relationships, so you can build powerful APIs with minimal boilerplate. By defining resources instead of controllers and serializers, Graphiti helps you keep your API logic organized, consistent, and easy to maintain.
 
+Graphiti sits on top of your models (usually ActiveRecord) and exposes them over a JSON:API-compliant interface. You define Resources instead of controllers and serializers, and get filtering, sorting, pagination, sparse fieldsets, statistics, and nested reads and writes across relationships, all over one endpoint.
 
-#### Examples 
-Here's an example resource from the [example app](https://github.com/graphiti-api/employee_directory/) just to give you a taste of the possibilities. 
+It's built on the [JSON:API](https://jsonapi.org) spec, which settles the decisions every API accumulates: response shapes, filtering, sorting, pagination, error formats, and how related data rides along. Your client layer speaks this protocol in return. It isn't complicated, so client logic can be hand-rolled or you can use one of the [many available libraries](https://jsonapi.org/implementations/#client-libraries) that work with the standard.
 
+A Resource looks like this:
 
 ```ruby
 class EmployeeResource < ApplicationResource
   attribute :first_name, :string
   attribute :last_name, :string
   attribute :age, :integer
-  attribute :created_at, :datetime, writable: false
-  attribute :updated_at, :datetime, writable: false
-  attribute :title, :string, only: [:filterable, :sortable]
 
   has_many :positions
-  has_many :tasks
-  many_to_many :teams
-  polymorphic_has_many :notes, as: :notable
-  has_one :current_position, resource: PositionResource do
-    params do |hash|
-      hash[:filter][:current] = true
-    end
-  end
-
-  filter :title, only: [:eq] do
-    eq do |scope, value|
-      scope.joins(:current_position).merge(Position.where(title: value))
-    end
-  end
-
-  sort :title do |scope, value|
-    scope.joins(:current_position).merge(Position.order(title: value))
-  end
-
-  sort :department_name, :string do |scope, value|
-    scope.joins(current_position: :department)
-      .merge(Department.order(name: value))
-  end
 end
 ```
 
-In Rails, controllers serving resources include `Graphiti::Rails::Controller`. Putting it in `ApplicationController` covers the whole app; putting it in an API base class scopes it there and leaves the rest alone.
+That Resource serves `?filter[age][gt]=30`, `?sort=-age`, `?page[size]=10`, `?include=positions` and more, without writing any of them. See [graphiti.dev](https://graphiti.dev/) for the whole loop, or the [example app](https://github.com/graphiti-api/employee_directory/) for a full working API.
 
-```ruby
-class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
-  include Graphiti::Rails::Controller
-end
-```
+### Documentation
 
-That gives those controllers the Graphiti context, the debugger, and JSON:API rendering for Graphiti's exceptions plus anything else raised. Registering your own exceptions does not require it — `register_exception` is available on every controller — but only controllers with the include render *unregistered* exceptions as JSON:API rather than falling through to Rails.
+Docs live at [graphiti.dev](https://graphiti.dev/) and are rendered from this repo: the markdown is in [`/docs`](docs), and the Docusaurus site that serves it is in [`/website`](website). Fixes and improvements are welcome (every page has an "Edit this page" link at the bottom, which makes opening a PR with a change easy).
 
-A pretty boilerplate controller that just interfaces with the resource. `respond_with` comes from the [`responders`](https://github.com/heartcombo/responders) gem; with it in your Gemfile, add `include Graphiti::Rails::Responders` as well. Otherwise use `render jsonapi:` as the write actions below do.
+To preview locally:
 
-```ruby
-class EmployeesController < ApplicationController
-  def index
-    employees = EmployeeResource.all(params)
-    respond_with(employees)
-  end
-
-  def show
-    employee = EmployeeResource.find(params)
-    respond_with(employee)
-  end
-
-  def create
-    employee = EmployeeResource.build(params)
-
-    if employee.save
-      render jsonapi: employee, status: 201
-    else
-      render jsonapi_errors: employee
-    end
-  end
-
-  def update
-    employee = EmployeeResource.find(params)
-
-    if employee.update_attributes
-      render jsonapi: employee
-    else
-      render jsonapi_errors: employee
-    end
-  end
-
-  def destroy
-    employee = EmployeeResource.find(params)
-
-    if employee.destroy
-      render jsonapi: { meta: {} }, status: 200
-    else
-      render jsonapi_errors: employee
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-  
-</details>
-
-
-Now you can query your endpoints simply and powerfully, like: 
-
-
-
-Request:
-```http://localhost:3000/api/v1/employees?filter[title][eq]=Future Government Administrator&filter[age][lt]=40```
