+## Companion Packages
+
+objc-js has two companion packages for TypeScript types and pure-C framework bindings:
+
+### objcjs-types
+
+Auto-generated TypeScript type definitions for macOS Objective-C frameworks. Provides IntelliSense and type checking for classes, protocols, enums, and methods across all major Apple frameworks.
+
+```bash
+npm install objcjs-types
+```
+
+```typescript
+import type { NSWindow, NSApplicationDelegate } from "objcjs-types/AppKit";
+import type { CGPoint, CGSize, CGRect } from "objcjs-types/structs";
+```
+
+### objcjs-extra
+
+Hand-written FFI bindings for macOS pure-C frameworks that have no Objective-C metadata (so they can't be auto-generated by objcjs-types). Works with both Bun (`bun:ffi`) and Node.js (`koffi`).
+
+```bash
+npm install objcjs-extra koffi    # Node.js
+bun add objcjs-extra              # Bun
+```
+
+Provides bindings for CoreFoundation, CoreGraphics, ApplicationServices (Accessibility), Security, CoreServices (FSEvents, Launch Services), IOKit, CoreText, ImageIO, CoreAudio, Network, CoreMedia, and Accelerate.
+
+```typescript
+import { AXUIElementCreateApplication, AXIsProcessTrusted } from "objcjs-extra/ApplicationServices";
+import { CGEventCreateKeyboardEvent, CGEventPost } from "objcjs-extra/CoreGraphics";
+import { getDefaultOutputDevice, setDeviceVolume } from "objcjs-extra/CoreAudio";
+import { preventSleep } from "objcjs-extra/IOKit";
+```
+
+### When to use which package
