+Now, you can use the provided APIs to perform various music theory operations. For more detailed usage instructions and examples, please refer to the [API documentation](https://pub.dev/documentation/music_notes/latest/).
+
+### Notes
+
+Define `Note`s from the musical scale:
+
+```dart
+Note.c; // C
+Note.d; // D
+Note.f; // D
+```
+
+Alter them:
+
+```dart
+Note.c.sharp; // C♯
+Note.d.flat; // D♭
+Note.g.flat.flat // G𝄫
+Note.f.sharp.sharp.sharp; // F𝄪♯
+```
+
+And position them in the octave, resulting in `PositionedNote`s:
+
+```dart
+Note.f.inOctave(4); // F4
+Note.b.flat.inOctave(5); // B♭5
+```
+
+Or just parse them in both scientific and Helmholtz notations:
+
+```dart
+Note.parse('a#'); // A♯
+PositionedNote.parse("g''"); // G5
+PositionedNote.parse('Bb3'); // B♭3
+```
+
+### Intervals
+
+Create an `Interval`:
+
+```dart
+Interval.perfect(5, PerfectQuality.perfect); // P5
+Interval.P4; // P4
+```
+
+Or turn it descending:
+
+```dart
+-Interval.P4; // desc P4
+Interval.M3.descending(); // desc M3
+```
+
+Calculate the `Interval` between two notes:
+
+```dart
+Note.c.interval(Note.g); // P5
+Note.d.interval(Note.f.sharp).inverted; // m6
+Note.g.flat.transposeBy(-Interval.m3); // E♭
+```
+
+And even play with the circle of fifths or any circle of intervals up to a distance:
+
+```dart
+Interval.P5.circleFrom(Note.c, distance: 12);
+// [C, G, D, A, E, B, F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯, A♯, E♯, B♯]
+Note.c.circleOfFifths();
+// (flats: [F, B♭, E♭, A♭, D♭, G♭], sharps: [G, D, A, E, B, F♯])
+```
+
+### Tonalities
+
+Create a `Tonality` or get it from a given `Note`:
+
+```dart
+Tonality(Note.e, TonalMode.minor); // E minor
+Note.a.flat.major; // A♭ major
+```
+
+Know its `KeySignature`:
+
+```dart
+Note.d.major.keySignature; // 2 (F♯ C♯)
+Note.e.flat.minor.keySignature; // -6 (B♭ E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ C♭)
+```
+
+And its relative `Tonality`:
+
+```dart
+Note.d.major.relative; // B minor
+Note.c.minor.relative; // E♭ major
+```
+
+### Key signatures
+
+Create a `KeySignature`:
+
+```dart
+KeySignature([Note.b.flat, Note.e.flat]); // 2 (B♭ E♭)
+KeySignature.fromDistance(4); // 4 (F♯ C♯ G♯ D♯)
+```
+
+And know its tonalities:
+
+```dart
+KeySignature([Note.f.sharp]).tonalities.major; // G major
+KeySignature.fromDistance(-3).tonalities.minor; // C minor
+```
+
+### Modes
+
+Get each `Mode`’s `ScalePattern`:
+
+```dart
+TonalMode.minor.scale; // ScalePattern.minor
+ModalMode.locrian.scale; // ScalePattern.locrian
+```
+
+Their [Dorian Brightness Quotient]:
+
+```dart
+ModalMode.lydian.brightness; // 3
+ModalMode.dorian.brightness; // 0
+ModalMode.aeolian.brightness; // -1
+```
+
+Or its mirrored version:
+
+```dart
+ModalMode.ionian.mirrored; // ModalMode.phrygian
+ModalMode.aeolian.mirrored; // ModalMode.mixolydian
+```
+
+### Scales
+
+Create a `Scale` from a `ScalePattern`:
+
+```dart
+ScalePattern.lydian.on(Note.d); // D Lydian (D E F♯ G♯ A B C♯ D)
+ScalePattern.majorPentatonic.on(Note.g.flat); // G♭ Major pentatonic (G♭ A♭ B♭ D♭ E♭ G♭)
+ScalePattern.wholeTone.on(Note.f); // F Whole-tone (F G A B C♯ D♯ F)
+```
+
+Or get it from a `Tonality`:
+
+```dart
+Note.a.flat.major.scale; // A♭ Major (ionian) (A♭ B♭ C D♭ E♭ F G A♭)
+Note.d.minor.scale; // D Natural minor (aeolian) (D E F G A B♭ C D)
+```
+
+Even play with any `ScaleDegree` or `HarmonicFunction`:
+
+```dart
+ScalePattern.lydian.on(Note.e).degree(ScaleDegree.iv); // A♯
+Note.c.major.scale.functionChord(
+  HarmonicFunction.dominantV / HarmonicFunction.dominantV,
+); // D maj. (D F♯ A)
+```
+
+### Chords
+
+Create a `Chord` from a series of `Note`s or from a `ChordPattern`:
+
+```dart
+Chord([Note.a, Note.c.sharp, Note.e]); // A maj. (A C♯ E)
+ChordPattern.augmentedTriad.add11().add13().on(Note.d.sharp);
+// D♯ aug. (D♯ F𝄪 A𝄪 G♯ B♯)
+```
+
+Or build it on top of a `Note`:
+
+```dart
+Note.f.minorTriad.add7().add9(ImperfectQuality.minor);
+// F min. (F A♭ C E♭ G♭)
+Note.e.flat.diminishedTriad.add7().transposeBy(Interval.m2);
+// F♭ dim. (F♭ A𝄫 C𝄫 E𝄫)
+```
+
+Or modify its root triad:
+
+```dart
+Note.g.minorTriad.major; // G maj. (G B D)
+Note.f.sharp.majorTriad.add9().diminished; // F♯ dim. (F♯ A C G♯)
+```
+
+### Frequencies
+
+Get the `Frequency` of a `PositionedNote`:
+
+```dart
+Note.a.inOctave(4).equalTemperamentFrequency(); // 440.0 Hz
+Note.b.flat.inOctave(4).equalTemperamentFrequency(
+      referenceNote: Note.c.inOctave(4),
+      referenceFrequency: const Frequency(256),
+    ); // 456.1401436878537 Hz
+```
+
+Or even get the closest note from a given `Frequency`:
+
+```dart
+const Frequency(415).closestPositionedNote();
+// (G♯4, cents: -1.2706247484469828, hertz: -0.3046975799451275)
+```
+
+### In a nutshell
+
+```dart
+ScalePattern.lydian // Lydian (M2 M2 M2 m2 M2 M2 m2)
+    .on(Note.parse('a')) // A Lydian (A B C♯ D♯ E F♯ G♯ A)
+    .transposeBy(Interval.M2) // B Lydian (B C♯ D♯ E♯ F♯ G♯ A♯ B)
+    .degree(ScaleDegree.iii) // D♯
+    .respelledUpwards // E♭
+    .major // E♭ major
+    .relative // C minor
+    .scale // C Natural minor (aeolian) (C D E♭ F G A♭ B♭ C)
+    .degreeChord(ScaleDegree.v) // G min. (G B♭ D)
+    .add9(); // G min. (G B♭ D A)
+```
