-`assembler.js` name is a tribute to Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari concept of [_Agencement_](<https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agencement_(philosophie)>) (in french) that can be translated into [Assemblage](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assemblage_(philosophy)>).
+Inspired by [DIOD](https://github.com/artberri/diod) and [NestJS](https://nestjs.com/).
 
-## Install
+## Installation
+
+Install `assemblerjs` and its peer dependency `reflect-metadata` using npm or yarn:
 
 ```sh
-yarn add assemblerjs
+npm install assemblerjs reflect-metadata
 ```
 
 ```sh
-npm install assemblerjs
+yarn add assemblerjs reflect-metadata
+```
+
+**Important:** You must import `reflect-metadata` at the entry point of your application:
+
+```typescript
+import 'reflect-metadata';
+```
+
+> ✨ **Works everywhere**: This installation works for **Node.js, browsers (with Vite/Webpack/Rollup), React, Vue, Angular, and any JavaScript environment**.
+
+### Alternative: CDN (for quick prototyping)
+
+If you want to try assemblerjs without a build step:
+
+```html
+<script src="https://unpkg.com/reflect-metadata@latest/Reflect.js"></script>
+<script type="module">
+  import { Assemblage, Assembler } from 'https://unpkg.com/assemblerjs@latest/dist/index.js';
+  // Your code here
+</script>
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```typescript
+import 'reflect-metadata';
+import { Assemblage, Assembler, AbstractAssemblage } from 'assemblerjs';
+
+// Define a service
+@Assemblage()
+class Logger implements AbstractAssemblage {
+  log(message: string) {
+    console.log(message);
+  }
+}
+
+// Define an application that depends on Logger
+@Assemblage({
+  inject: [[Logger]], // Declare dependencies
+})
+class App implements AbstractAssemblage {
+  constructor(private logger: Logger) {}
+
+  start() {
+    this.logger.log('App started!');
+  }
+}
+
+// Bootstrap the application
+const app = Assembler.build(App);
+app.start(); // Output: "App started!"
 ```

+- [TypeScript Setup](../../docs/assemblerjs/getting-started/typescript-setup.md)
+
+#### Core Concepts
+- [Assemblage](../../docs/assemblerjs/core-concepts/assemblage.md) - Building blocks
+- [Dependency Injection](../../docs/assemblerjs/core-concepts/dependency-injection.md) - DI patterns
+- [Abstraction Pattern](../../docs/assemblerjs/core-concepts/abstraction-pattern.md) - Interface-based design
+- [Lifecycle Hooks](../../docs/assemblerjs/core-concepts/lifecycle-hooks.md) - Initialization & cleanup
+
+#### Decorators
+- [Parameter Decorators](../../docs/assemblerjs/decorators/parameter-decorators.md) - Built-in decorators
+- [Custom Parameter Decorators](../../docs/assemblerjs/decorators/custom-parameter.md) - Create your own
+- [Custom Class Decorators](../../docs/assemblerjs/decorators/custom-class.md) - Type-safe class decorators
 
-The main block of `assembler.js` is the **Assemblage**. It is created by decorating classes with the `@Assemblage` decorator. To keep everything type-safe, classes may implement `AbstractAssemblage` abstract class or define their own abstract class that extends it.
-These abstract classes are used as identifiers to inject dependencies.
+#### Features
+- [Event System](../../docs/assemblerjs/features/events.md) - Event-driven architecture
+- [Tags](../../docs/assemblerjs/features/tags.md) - Group assemblages
+- [Singleton vs Transient](../../docs/assemblerjs/features/singleton-transient.md) - Instance lifecycle
 
-## Order of execution
+#### API Reference
+- [Assembler API](../../docs/assemblerjs/api/assembler.md) - Container methods
+- [AssemblerContext API](../../docs/assemblerjs/api/context.md) - Context interface
+- [Types](../../docs/assemblerjs/api/types.md) - TypeScript types
 
-Dependencies are registered and built recursively from the entry assemblage resolved by `Assembler.build`.

-Static hook called when registering the assemblage.
-Other dependencies may or may not have been registered at this point, and dependency tree is not built yet.
+## Requirements
 
-##### `constructor`
+- **Node.js:** ≥ 18.12.0
+- **TypeScript:** ≥ 5.0 (with decorator support)
+- **reflect-metadata:** Required for dependency injection
 
-Build the instance and requires an instance of each dependency passed to the constructor.
-If the dependency is not a singleton a new instance is returned, meaning the same dependency required in another assemblage will be another object, as when using the `require` method of the `AssemblerContext` passed to hooks or injected by the `@Context` decorator.
+## For Contributors
 
-##### `onInit`
+### Architecture
 
-Called on every dependency when the dependency tree is ready.
-Except for the entry assemblage (i.e. the one built on bootstrap by `Assembler.build`) the hook is called according to the latter.
-The entry point assemblage is called last.
+This package is part of the `assemblerjs` monorepo and depends on:
 
-##### `onDispose`
+- **`@assemblerjs/core`** - Internal utilities package
 
-Called when disposing the assembler via the `dispose` method injected by the `@Dispose` decorator.
-This will be called like the `onInit` method, walking through the dependency tree, except for the entry point assemblage, called last.
+### Development
 
-## Events
+```bash
+# Install dependencies from workspace root
+yarn install
 
-`assembler.js` provides an `EventManager` that can be subclassed by any assemblage.
+# Build the package
+npx nx build assemblerjs
 
-Because all events **are forwarded by `AssemblerContext`** the `EventManager` is quite strict on which events can be broadcasted and they must be registered explicitly using the `events` property of the `AssemblageDefinition`. To avoid collision between events channels, user is strongly encouraged to create _strong_ channels names, e.g.: `com.domain.app.assemblage-name:init`.
+# Run tests
+npx nx test assemblerjs
+```
+
+## Tree-Shaking & Bundle Optimization
+
+`assembler.js` is optimized for tree-shaking with modular exports. Import only what you need:
 
 ```typescript
-const prefix = 'com.domain.app.emitter-assemblage';
+// ❌ Large bundle (imports everything)
+import * as Assembler from 'assemblerjs';
 
-export enum EmitterAssemblageEvents {
-  Init = `${prefix}:init`,
-}
+// ✅ Optimal (only imports required modules)
+import { Assemblage, Assembler, AbstractAssemblage } from 'assemblerjs';
+```
 
-@Assemblage({
-  events: Object.values(EmitterAssemblageEvents),
-})
-export class EmitterAssemblage
-  extends EventManager
-  implements AbstractEventAssemblage
-{
-  constructor() {
-    super();
-  }
+### Bundle Size Examples
 
-  public async onInit(): Promise<void> {
-    this.emit(EmitterAssemblageEvents.Init, true);
-  }
-}
+- **Minimal usage** (~5-6 KB): Core DI features only
+- **Medium usage** (~15-18 KB): DI + Events + Parameter decorators
+- **Full library** (~35 KB): All features
 
-@Assemblage()
-export class SubcriberAssemblage implements AbstractAssemblage {
-  constructor(@Context() private context: AssemblerContext) {
-    context.on(EmitterAssemblageEvents.Init, (value: boolean) => {
-      console.log(value); // true.
-    });
-
-    context.on('*', (value: boolean) => {
-      console.log(value); // true.
-    });
+The package uses:
+- ✅ `"sideEffects": false` - Safe to remove unused modules
+- ✅ Modular exports - Each feature in separate files
+- ✅ ESM format - Native tree-shaking support
+
+## TypeScript Configuration
+
+Enable decorators and reflection in your `tsconfig.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "compilerOptions": {
+    "experimentalDecorators": true,
+    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
+    "target": "ES2020",
+    "module": "ESNext",
+    "lib": ["ES2020"]
   }
 }
+```
+
+## Requirements
 
-Assembler.build(SubcriberAssemblage);
+- **Node.js:** ≥ 18.12.0
+- **TypeScript:** ≥ 5.0 (with decorator support)
+- **reflect-metadata:** Required for dependency injection
+
+## For Contributors
+
+### Architecture
+
+This package is part of the `assemblerjs` monorepo and depends on:
+
+- **`@assemblerjs/core`** - Internal utilities package providing:
+  - Type utilities and helpers
+  - Collection management utilities
+  - Error handling utilities
+  - Conditional utilities
+  - Array manipulation helpers
+
+This dependency is automatically installed with `assemblerjs` and transparent to end users.
+
+### Development
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies from workspace root
+yarn install
+
+# Build the package
+npx nx build assemblerjs
+
+# Run tests
+npx nx test assemblerjs
 ```
