 # Python library to interact with LEGO Move Hub
 
-Requires `gattlib` to be installed, currently Python 2.7 only
+Best way to start is to look into [`demo.py`](demo.py) file, and run it.

 ## Features
 
 - auto-detect and connect for Bluetooth device
 - auto-detects devices connected to Hub
-- permanent Bluetooth connection server for faster debugging
 - angled and timed movement for motors
 - LED color change
-- sensor data subscribe/unsubscribe
-- battery voltage available
+- motors: angled and timed movement, rotation sensor subscription
+- push button status subscription
+- tilt sensor subscription: 2 axis, 3 axis, bump detect modes
+- color & distance sensor: several modes to measure distance, color and luminosity
+- battery voltage subscription available
+- permanent Bluetooth connection server for faster debugging
 
 ## Usage
 
+Install library like this: 
+```bash
+pip install https://github.com/undera/pylgbst/archive/0.2.tar.gz
+```
+
+Then instantiate MoveHub object and start invoking its methods. Following is example to just print peripherals detected on Hub:

 ```python
 from pylgbst import MoveHub

 ## Roadmap
 
+- handle device detach and device attach events on ports C/D
 - experiment with motor commands, find what is hidden there
 - Give nice documentation examples, don't forget to mention logging
+- document all API methods
 - make sure unit tests cover all important code
 - generalize getting device info + give constants (low priority)
