+`rocketserializer` is a Python library that provides serialization capabilities
+for OpenRocket files. It allows you to read OpenRocket files (.ork) using a
+simple and intuitive command line interface. After serializing the file, you
+can use the data to create your RocketPy simulation.
+
+## Example

 - pyyaml
-- rocketpy
-- nbformat
+- rocketpy>=1.1.0

 ## Usage - command line interface
 
-To use Rocket Serializer, you just need to use the cli option of the library.
-Here's an example:
+The `rocketserializer` package will automatically install 2 command-line-interface (cli)
+options, here's an example:
+
+### Serialization
+
+To create a `parameters.json` file from an OpenRocket file, use the following command:
+
+```bash
+ork2json --filepath your_rocket.ork
+```
+
+Or, for a more verbose output, you can use the following command:
 
 ```bash
-rocket-serializer ork2json --filepath path/to/input.ork --output path/to/output
+ork2json --filepath your_rocket.ork --verbose True
 ```
 
 The options are the following:
 
 - `--filepath`: The .ork file to be serialized.
-- `--output` : Path to the output folder. If not set, the output will be saved in the same folder os the filepath.
-- `--eng` : Path to the engine file. If not set, the library will get the thrust curve from the OpenRocket file.
+- `--output` : Path to the output folder. If not set, the output will be saved in the same folder as the `filepath`.
 - `--ork_jar` : Specify the path to the OpenRocket jar file. If not set, the library will try to find the jar file in the current directory.
+- `--encoding` : The encoding of the .ork file. By default, it is set to `utf-8`.
 - `--verbose` : If you want to see the progress of the serialization, set this option to True. By default, it is set to False.
 
+Only the `--filepath` option is mandatory.
+
+### Creating a simulation notebook
+
+```bash
+ork2notebook --filepath your_rocket.ork
+```
+
+The options are pretty much the same as the serialization command!
+
 ### Limitations
 
 This code won't work for your rocket if it has any of the following features:
 
-- Your file wasn't saved in English
-- Your file doesn't contain simulation data
-- Your rocket has more than one stage
-- Your rocket has more than one engine
-- Your rocket has more than one nosecone
+- Your .ork file must be saved in English
+- Your .ork file must be saved with at least 1 simulation data
+- Only one single stage is supported
+- Only a single motor is supported
+- Only a single nose cone is supported
