+## Drivers
+
+NgQubee supports three drivers out of the box. A driver **must** be specified in the configuration:
+
+| Driver | Backend | Request Format | Response Format |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Laravel** | Plain Laravel pagination | `limit=N&page=N` (pagination only) | Flat: `{ data, current_page, total, ... }` |
+| **Spatie** | Spatie Query Builder | `filter[field]=value`, `sort=-field` | Flat: `{ data, current_page, total, ... }` |
+| **NestJS** | nestjs-paginate | `filter.field=$operator:value`, `sortBy=field:DESC` | Nested: `{ data, meta: {...}, links: {...} }` |
+
 ## Usage
-Import the module in your Angular app:
+
+### Laravel Driver (pagination-only)
+
+The Laravel driver provides basic pagination — limit and page parameters only. No filters, sorts, fields, or includes are supported.
 
 ```typescript
+import { DriverEnum } from 'ng-qubee';
+
+// Standalone approach
+bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {
+  providers: [provideNgQubee({ driver: DriverEnum.LARAVEL })]
+});
+
+// Module approach
 @NgModule({
   imports: [
-    NgQubeeModule.forRoot({}) // You can omit the empty object as it is an optional argument
+    NgQubeeModule.forRoot({ driver: DriverEnum.LARAVEL })
   ]
 })
-export class AppModule  {}
+export class AppModule {}
 ```
 
-Or if you are working with Angular 15 or greater, use the provide function:
+### Spatie Driver
+
+The Spatie driver generates URIs compatible with [Spatie Laravel Query Builder](https://spatie.be/docs/laravel-query-builder):
+
 ```typescript
-const config = {};
+import { DriverEnum } from 'ng-qubee';

+
+To use the NestJS driver, specify the driver in your configuration:

+
+// Standalone approach
+bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {
+  providers: [provideNgQubee({ driver: DriverEnum.NESTJS })]

 ## Pagination
 If you are working with an API that supports pagination, we have got you covered 😉 NgQubee provides:
 - A PaginatedCollection class that holds paginated data
@@ -199,31 +352,69 @@ this._pg.paginate<Model>({  ...response,  data: response.data.map(e  =>  new  Mo
 
 The "paginate" method returns a PaginatedCollection that helps handling paginated data. Additionally, if you are dealing with a state library in your application, you can use the "normalize" method of the collection to normalize the data.
 
-As you can see from the example, the paginate method requires a generic type: put there your model and you'll be provided with a PaginatedCollection<Model>. By default, the paginated collection will check for the following keys in the response:
+### Laravel / Spatie Response Format
+
+When using the Laravel or Spatie driver, the paginated collection will check for the following keys in the response:
 
 - data - the key that holds the response data
-- currentPage - requested page for the pagination
-- from - Showing items from n (where n is a number)
-- to - Showing items from n (where n is a number)
-- total - Count of the items available in thw whole pagination
-- perPage - Items per page
-- prevPageUrl - Url to the previous page
-- nextPageUrl - Url to the next page
-- lastPage - Last page number
-- firstPageUrl - Url to the first page
-- lastPageUrl - Url to the last page
-
-Just like the query builder, the pagination service supports customizable keys. While invoking the forRoot method of the module, use the response key to look for different keys in the API response. Let's assume that the "currentPage" key is named "pg" in your API responseL your forRoot configuration will look as following:
+- current_page - requested page for the pagination
+- from - Showing items from n
+- to - Showing items to n
+- total - Count of the items available in the whole pagination
+- per_page - Items per page
+- prev_page_url - URL to the previous page
+- next_page_url - URL to the next page
+- last_page - Last page number
+- first_page_url - URL to the first page
+- last_page_url - URL to the last page
+
+### NestJS Response Format
+
+When using the NestJS driver, the PaginationService automatically parses nested responses:
+
+```json
+{
+  "data": [...],
+  "meta": {
+    "currentPage": 1,
+    "totalItems": 100,
+    "itemsPerPage": 10,
+    "totalPages": 10
+  },
+  "links": {
+    "first": "http://api.com/users?page=1",
+    "previous": null,
+    "next": "http://api.com/users?page=2",
+    "last": "http://api.com/users?page=10",
+    "current": "http://api.com/users?page=1"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The `from` and `to` values are computed automatically from `currentPage` and `itemsPerPage` when not present in the response.
+
+### Customizing Response Keys
+
+Just like the query builder, the pagination service supports customizable keys. While invoking the forRoot method of the module, use the response key to look for different keys in the API response:
 
 ```typescript
+// Spatie
 NgQubeeModule.forRoot({
+  driver: DriverEnum.SPATIE,
   response:  {
     currentPage:  'pg'
   }
 })
-```
 
-Feel free to customize your PaginationService as you need, using the keys shown in the upper list.
+// NestJS (use dot-notation for nested paths)
+NgQubeeModule.forRoot({
+  driver: DriverEnum.NESTJS,
+  response:  {
+    currentPage:  'pagination.page',
+    total: 'pagination.total'
+  }
+})
