-**Work in Progress**
+`gql.tada` is a GraphQL document authoring library, inferring the result and variables types
+of GraphQL queries and fragments in the TypeScript type system. It derives the types for your
+GraphQL queries on the fly allowing you to write type-safe GraphQL documents quickly.
 
-## Shortcomings
+In short, `gql.tada`,
 
-- [ ] support having parsed parts in a document, like a fragment reference
-- [ ] support defining custom scalars
+- parses your GraphQL documents in the TypeScript type system
+- uses your introspected schema and scalar configuration to derive a schema
+- maps your GraphQL queries and fragments with the schema to result and variables types
+- creates fragment masks and enforces unwrapping fragments gradually
+
+Since this is all done in the TypeScript type system and type checker, this all happens
+while you edit your GraphQL front-end code and is always accurate.
+
+### Let’s take a look!
+
+```ts
+import { graphql } from 'gql.tada';
+import { myIntrospectionQuery } from './fixtures/introspection';
+
+// We can declare our introspected schema once globally
+declare module 'gql.tada' {
+  interface setupSchema {
+    introspection: typeof myIntrospectionQuery;
+  }
+}
+
+// Creates fragment documents
+const fragment = graphql(`
+  fragment HelloWorld extends Query {
+    hello
+    world
+  }
+`);
+
+// Creates queries, optionally accepting a list of fragments for fragment spreads
+const query = graphql(
+  `
+    {
+      hello
+      ...HelloWorld
+    }
+  `,
+  [fragment]
+);
+```
+
+## 💾 Setup
+
+Install `gql.tada` using your project’s package manager,
+
+```sh
+npm i gql.tada
+pnpm add graphql
+yarn add gql.tada
+bun add graphql
+```
+
+`gql.tada` infers the types of your queries. However, it can’t provide you with editor feedback,
+like autocompletion, diagnostics & errors, and hover information inside GraphQL queries.
+For the best experience, it’s recommended to install [GraphQLSP](https://github.com/0no-co/graphqlsp)
+to supplement these features.
+
+Install `@0no-co/graphqlsp` as a dev dependency,
+
+```sh
+npm i -D gql.tada
+pnpm add -D graphql
+yarn add --dev gql.tada
+bun add --dev graphql
+```
+
+Then, update your `tsconfig.json` to enable the `graphqlsp` plugin in your TypeScript server,
+
+**tsconfig.json**
+
+```diff
+{
+  "compilerOptions": {
++    "plugins": [
++      {
++        "name": "@0no-co/graphqlsp",
++        "schema": "./schema.graphql"
++      }
++    ]
+  }
+}
+```
