 ### Chain Types & APIs
 
 Each Substrate-based blockchain has their own set of data types & APIs to interact with, so being aware of those types & APIs when working with a blockchain will greatly improve the overall development experience. `dedot` exposes TypeScript's types & APIs for each individual Substrate-based blockchain, we recommend using TypeScript for your project to have the best experience.
 
-Types & APIs for each Substrate-based blockchains are defined in package [`@dedot/chaintypes`](https://github.com/dedotdev/dedot/tree/main/packages/chaintypes):

 ```
 
-In alpha test version, we only support `ChainApi` interfaces for 4 networks (Polkadot, Kusama, Moonbeam & Astar), we plan to expand this list to support more Substrate-based blockchains in the near future.
+Supported `ChainApi` interfaces are defined [here](https://github.com/dedotdev/chaintypes/blob/main/packages/chaintypes/src/index.ts), you can also generate the `ChainApi` interface for the chain you want to connect with using `dedot` cli.
+
+```shell
+# Generate ChainApi interface for Polkadot network via rpc endpoint: wss://rpc.polkadot.io
+npx dedot chaintypes -w wss://rpc.polkadot.io
+```
 
 ### Execute RPC Methods
 
-RPCs can be execute via `api.rpc` entry point. After creating a `Dedot` instance with a `ChainApi` interface of the network you want to interact with, all RPC methods of the network will be exposed in the autocompletion/suggestion with format: `api.rpc.<module>.<methodName>`. E.g: you can find all supported RPC methods for Polkadot network [here](https://github.com/dedotdev/dedot/blob/main/packages/chaintypes/src/polkadot/rpc.ts), similarly for other networks as well.

-const result = await api.rpc.module.rpc_name('param1', 'param2');
+const result = await api.rpc.module_rpc_name('param1', 'param2');
 ```
 
 ### Query On-chain Storage
 
-On-chain storage can be query via `api.query` entry point. All the available storage entries for a chain are exposed in the `ChainApi` interface for that chain and can be execute with format: `api.query.<pallet>.<storgeEntry>`.

 ### Runtime APIs
 
-⏳ _coming soon_
+The latest stable Metadata V15 now includes all the runtime apis type information. So for chains that are supported Metadata V15, we can now execute all available runtime apis with syntax `api.call.<runtimeApi>.<methodName>`, those apis are exposed in `ChainApi` interface. E.g: Runtime Apis for Polkadot network is defined [here](https://github.com/dedotdev/chaintypes/blob/main/packages/chaintypes/src/polkadot/runtime.d.ts), similarly for other networks as well.
+
+Examples:
+```typescript
+// Get account nonce
+const nonce = await api.call.accountNonceApi.accountNonce(<address>);
+
+// Query transaction payment info
+const tx = api.tx.balances.transferKeepAlive(<address>, 2_000_000_000_000n);
+const queryInfo = await api.call.transactionPaymentApi.queryInfo(tx.toU8a(), tx.length);
+
+// Get runtime version
+const runtimeVersion = await api.call.core.version();
+```
+
+For chains that only support Metadata V14, we need to bring in the Runtime Api definitions when initializing the DedotClient instance to encode & decode the calls. You can find all supported Runtime Api definitions in [`dedot/runtime-specs`](https://github.com/dedotdev/dedot/blob/fefe71cf4a04d1433841f5cfc8400a1e2a8db112/packages/runtime-specs/src/all.ts#L21-L39) package.
 
-### Submit Transactions
+Examples:
+```typescript
+import { RuntimeApis } from 'dedot/runtime-specs';
+const api = await DedotClient.new({ provider: new WsProvider('wss://rpc.mynetwork.com'), runtimeApis: RuntimeApis });
+
+// Or bring in only the Runtime Api definition that you want to interact with
+import { AccountNonceApi } from 'dedot/runtime-specs';
+const api = await DedotClient.new({ provider: new WsProvider('wss://rpc.mynetwork.com'), runtimeApis: { AccountNonceApi } });
+
+// Get account nonce
+const nonce = await api.call.accountNonceApi.accountNonce(<address>);
+```
+
+You absolutely can define your own Runtime Api definition if you don't find it in the [supported list](https://github.com/dedotdev/dedot/blob/fefe71cf4a04d1433841f5cfc8400a1e2a8db112/packages/runtime-specs/src/all.ts#L21-L39).
+
+### Transaction APIs
+
+Transaction apis are designed to be compatible with [`IKeyringPair`](https://github.com/polkadot-js/api/blob/3bdf49b0428a62f16b3222b9a31bfefa43c1ca55/packages/types/src/types/interfaces.ts#L15-L21) and [`Signer`](https://github.com/polkadot-js/api/blob/3bdf49b0428a62f16b3222b9a31bfefa43c1ca55/packages/types/src/types/extrinsic.ts#L135-L150) interfaces, so you can sign the transactions with accounts created by a [`Keyring`](https://github.com/polkadot-js/common/blob/22aab4a4e62944a2cf8c885f50be2c1b842813ec/packages/keyring/src/keyring.ts#L41-L40) or from any [Polkadot{.js}-based](https://github.com/polkadot-js/extension?tab=readme-ov-file#api-interface) wallet extensions.
+
+All transaction apis are exposed in `ChainApi` interface and can be access with syntax: `api.tx.<pallet>.<transactionName>`. E.g: Available transaction apis for Polkadot network are defined [here](https://github.com/dedotdev/chaintypes/blob/main/packages/chaintypes/src/polkadot/tx.d.ts), similarly for other networks as well.
+

+const keyring = new Keyring({ type: 'sr25519' });
+const alice = keyring.addFromUri('//Alice');
+

+const account = (await injected.accounts.get())[0];
+const signer = injected.signer;
+
+const unsub = await api.tx.balances

+### Migration from `@polkadot/api` to `dedot`
+`dedot` is inspired by `@polkadot/api`, so both are sharing some common patterns and api styling (eg: api syntax `api.<type>.<module>.<section>`). Although we have experimented some other different api stylings but to our findings and development experience, we find that the api style of `@polkadot/api` is very intuiative and easy to use. We decide the use a similar api styling with `@polkadot/api`, this also helps the migration from `@polkadot/api` to `dedot` easier & faster. 
+
+While the api style are similar, but there're also some differences you might need to be aware of when switching to use `dedot`.

+import { DedotClient, WsProvider } from 'dedot';
+import type { PolkadotApi } from '@dedot/chaintypes';
+
+const api = await DedotClient.new<PolkadotApi>(new WsProvider('wss://rpc.polkadot.io')); // or DedotClient.create(...) if you prefer
+
+// OR
+const api = await DedotClient.new<PolkadotApi>({ provider: new WsProvider('wss://rpc.polkadot.io') });
+```
+
+- Notes:
+  - `dedot` only supports provider can make subscription request (e.g: via Websocket).
+  - We recommend specifying the `ChainApi` interface (e.g: [`PolkadotApi`](https://github.com/dedotdev/chaintypes/blob/main/packages/chaintypes/src/polkadot/index.d.ts) in the example above) of the chain that you want to interact with. This enable apis & types suggestion/autocompletion for that particular chain (via IntelliSense). If you don't specify a `ChainApi` interface, the default [`SubstrateApi`](https://github.com/dedotdev/dedot/blob/a762faf8f6af40d3e4ef163bd538b270a5ca31e8/packages/chaintypes/src/substrate/index.d.ts) interface will be used.
+  - `WsProvider` from `dedot` and `@polkadot/api` are different, they cannot be used interchangeable.
+
+**Type system**
+
+Unlike `@polkadot/api` where data are wrapped inside a [codec types](https://polkadot.js.org/docs/api/start/types.basics), so we always need to unwrap the data before using it (e.g: via `.unwrap()`, `.toNumber()`, `.toString()`, `.toJSON()` ...). `dedot` leverages the native TypeScript type system to represent scale-codec types, so you can use the data directly without extra handling/unwrapping. The table below is a mapping between scale-codec types and TypeScript types that we're using for `dedot`:
+
+
+| Scale Codec                                             | TypeScript (`dedot`)                                                                                                           |

+| `u64`, `u128`, `u256`, `i64`, `i128`, `i256`            | `bigint` (native [BigInt](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/BigInt), not bn.js) |
+| `bool`                                                  | `boolean` (true, false)                                                                                                        |
+| `Option<T>`                                             | `T \| undefined`                                                                                                               |

+| `Vec<T>`                                                | `Array<T>`                                                                                                                     |
+| `str`                                                   | `string`                                                                                                                       |
+| Tuple: `(A, B)`, `()`                                   | `[A, B]`, `[]`                                                                                                                 |
+| Struct: `struct { field_1: u8, field_2: str }`          | `{ field_1: number, field_2: string}`                                                                                          |

+E.g 1:
+```typescript
+const runtimeVersion = api.consts.system.version;
+
+// @polkadot/api
+const specName: string = runtimeVersion.toJSON().specName; // OR runtimeVersion.specName.toString()
+
+// dedot
+const specName: string = runtimeVersion.specName;
+```
+
+E.g 2: 
+```typescript
+const balance = await api.query.system.account(<address>);
+
+// @polkadot/api
+const freeBalance: bigint = balance.data.free.toBigInt();
+
+// dedot
+const freeBalance: bigint = balance.data.free;
+```
+
+E.g 3:
+```typescript
+// @polkadot/api
+const proposalBondMaximum: bigint | undefined = api.consts.treasury.proposalBondMaximum.unwrapOr(undefined)?.toBigInt();
+
+// dedot
+const proposalBondMaximum: bigint | undefined = api.consts.treasury.proposalBondMaximum;
