+If your application is already built with redux as global state manager, you can use differents approaches:

+
+In this case, you need to wrap your application with the **FlowerProvider** component in addition to the classic Redux provider.
+The order of providers is not relevant, since their redux contexts are different.
+n.b.: FlowerProvider generates a store instance with `FlowerData slice` from `flower-react-form`

-## Form
 
-Flower enables the quick creation of forms.
 
-It keeps track of the form's validity status. Not only does this status facilitate displaying error messages to the user, but it can also be leveraged to implement flow rules.
+
+## Operators Rules
+
+The "rules" in Flower are used to define conditions and conditional behaviors within the workflow. These rules allow to dynamically change the display or behavior of certain fields or components based on specific conditions.
+
+The rules schema follows the MongoDB style, below is the list of available operators:
+
+- $exists: Checks if a value exists or not.
+- $eq: Checks if two values are equal.
+- $ne: Checks if two values are not equal.
+- $gt: Checks if the first value is greater than the second.
+- $gte: Checks if the first value is greater than or equal to the second.
+- $lt: Checks if the first value is less than the second.
+- $lte: Checks if the first value is less than or equal to the second.
+- $strGt: Checks if the length of a string is greater than the specified value.
+- $strGte: Checks if the length of a string is greater than or equal to the specified value.
+- $strLt: Checks if the length of a string is less than the specified value.
+- $strLte: Checks if the length of a string is less than or equal to the specified value.
+- $in: Checks if a value is present in a given array.
+- $nin: Checks if a value is not present in a given array.
+- $all: Checks if all values are present in a given array.
+- $regex: Checks if a string matches a regular expression.
+
+### Examples
+
+Rules in $and | $or
+
+```jsx
+<FlowerNode id="node"
+  to={{
+    node2: {
+      rules: { $and: [
+        { myValue: { $exists: true } },
+        { myValue: { $strGt: 6 } }
+
+      ]}
+    }
+    }}>
+        ...
+</Flower>
+
+<FlowerNode id="node"
+  to={{
+    node2: {

+        { myValue: { $exists: false } },
+        { myValue: { $strGt: 6 } }
+
+      ]}
+    }
+    }}>
+        ...
+</Flower>
+
+```
+
+Compare state value, use '$ref:'
+
+```jsx
+<Flower name="demo" initialData={{ myValue1: 'test', myValue2: 'test2' }}>
+<FlowerNode id="node"
+  to={{
+    node2: {
+      rules: [
+        { myValue1: { $eq: '$ref:myValue2' } }
+      ]}
+    }}>
+        ...
+</Flower>
+```
+
+## Display Rules
+
+Showing or Hiding Fields: You can use rules to show or hide specific fields based on user choices. For example, hiding a "Buttons" unless the user selects a certain option.
+
+We can use the FlowerRule component to hide a part of the UI according to certain rules.
+
+If the "alwaysDisplay" property is passed, however, the component will not be automatically hidden, but a "hidden" property will be provided when the rules are not met.
+
+### Example
+
+```jsx
+import React from 'react'
+import {
+  Flower,
+  FlowerRoute,
+  FlowerNode,
+  FlowerRule,
+  FlowerNavigate
+} from '@flowerforce/flower-react'
+
+export const Page = () => {

+        {/* show / hidden based on rule */}
+        <FlowerRule rules={{ enableNav: { $eq: true } }}>
+          <p>Buttons nav are enabled</p>
+        </FlowerRule>
+        {/* always visible component, hidden prop is true when rule is not matched */}
