-## Quick checklist
+## Exposed API
+
+The package exports only one API from its main entrypoint:
+
+```ts
+import { initPjs } from "@tsparticles/pjs";
+```
+
+Signature:
+
+```ts
+initPjs(engine: Engine): Promise<void>
+```
+
+`initPjs` does not return compatibility objects directly.
+It initializes compatibility and populates global objects.
 
-1. Install `@tsparticles/engine` (or use the CDN bundle below)
-2. Call the package loader function(s) before `tsParticles.load(...)`
-3. Apply the package options in your `tsParticles.load(...)` config
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pnpm add @tsparticles/pjs @tsparticles/engine
+```
+
+## How it works
+
+Calling `initPjs(engine)` performs these steps:
+
+1. Checks runtime version compatibility.
+2. Registers required plugins (`tsparticles` full bundle + responsive plugin).
+3. Creates and exposes legacy globals:
+   - `globalThis.particlesJS`
+   - `globalThis.pJSDom`
+   - `globalThis.Particles`
+
+After initialization, you can use particles.js-compatible APIs.
 
 ## How to use it
 
+### ESM / TypeScript
+
+```ts
+import { tsParticles } from "@tsparticles/engine";
+import { initPjs } from "@tsparticles/pjs";
+
+await initPjs(tsParticles);
+
+await globalThis.particlesJS("tsparticles", {
+  /* particles.js-style options */
+});
+```

 ### CDN / Vanilla JS / jQuery
 
-The CDN/Vanilla version JS has two different files:
+The CDN/Vanilla JS version has two files:
 
 - One is a bundle file with all the scripts included in a single file
-- One is a file including just the `initPjs` function to load the tsParticles/particles.js compatibility
+- One includes only `initPjs`, where dependencies must be loaded manually
+
+After loading the bundle, call `initPjs(tsParticles)` once, then use legacy globals.
 
 #### Bundle
 
-Including the `tsparticles.pjs.bundle.min.js` file will also include the tsParticles engine exports.
-You need to call initPjs function awaiting it like in the samples, after that the `particlesJS` instance,
-or the `Particles` object are ready to be used in the same way.
+Use the bundle when you want a single script with all required dependencies.

+## Deprecation status
+
+- `particlesJS`, `pJSDom`, and `Particles` are deprecated compatibility APIs.
+- This package is obsolete and maintained for legacy integration only.
+- It may be removed in v5, so migration to direct `tsParticles` APIs is strongly recommended.
+
+See migration guide: [`markdown/pjsMigration.md`](../../markdown/pjsMigration.md)
+
 ## Common pitfalls
 
-- Calling `tsParticles.load(...)` before `package loader(...)`
-- Verify required peer packages before enabling advanced options
-- Change one option group at a time to isolate regressions quickly
+- Calling legacy globals before awaiting `initPjs(...)`
+- Expecting `initPjs` to return `particlesJS`/`Particles` directly
+- Mixing new `tsParticles` and legacy particles.js options in one config object
