+
+To ease the process of building animation, the library provides some utilities to help you. There are two types of utility functions - imperative functions and hooks.
+
+If you have a Skia Value that you want to animate declaratively, a hook is the best choice.
+
+In the example below we want the position of the rectangle to animate when we toggle a given value, and we want it to do this with a spring animation.
+
+## Declarative animation
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import React, { useState } from "react";
+import { Canvas, Rect, useSpring } from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+import { Button, StyleSheet } from "react-native";
+
+export const AnimationExample = () => {
+  const [toggled, setToggled] = useState(false);
+  const position = useSpring(toggled ? 100 : 0);
+  return (
+    <>
+      <Canvas style={{ flex: 1 }}>
+        <Rect x={position} y={100} width={10} height={10} color={"red"} />
+      </Canvas>
+      <Button title="Toggle" onPress={() => setToggled((p) => !p)} />
+    </>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+## Imperative animation
+
+Almost the same thing can be accomplished with an imperative function (except that we are not toggling back and forth in this example):
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import { Canvas, Rect, runSpring, useValue } from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+import { Button } from "react-native";
+
+export const AnimationExample = () => {
+  const position = useValue(0);
+  const changePosition = () => runSpring(position, 100);
+  return (
+    <>
+      <Canvas style={{ flex: 1 }}>
+        <Rect x={position} y={100} width={10} height={10} color={"red"} />
+      </Canvas>
+      <Button title="Toggle" onPress={changePosition} />
+    </>
+  );
+};
+```

+### useTouchHandler
+
+The `useTouchHandler` hook handles touches in the `Canvas`.
+It is meant to be used with values to animate elements of the canvas.
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import {
+  Canvas,
+  Circle,
+  useTouchHandler,
+  useValue,
+} from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+
+const MyComponent = () => {

+  const cy = useValue(100);
+
+  const touchHandler = useTouchHandler({
+    onActive: ({ x, y }) => {
+      cx.current = x;
+      cy.current = y;
+    },
+  });
+
+  return (
+    <Canvas style={{ flex: 1 }} onTouch={touchHandler}>
+      <Circle cx={cx} cy={cy} r={10} color="red" />
+    </Canvas>
+  );

+
+React Native Skia supports Animations through the concept of Skia Values. A value can be seen as the state in the library where a change in will trigger a repaint request on the `Canvas` component where it is used.
+
+A simple example is shown below shows how a value is used as a property for the x position of the `Rect` element.
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import { Canvas, Rect, useValue } from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+import { useCallback } from "react";
+import { Button } from "react-native";
+
+const MyComponent = () => {
+  const position = useValue(0);
+  const updateValue = useCallback(
+    () => (position.current = position.current + 10),
+    [position]
+  );
+
+  return (
+    <>
+      <Canvas style={{ flex: 1 }}>
+        <Rect x={position} y={100} width={10} height={10} color={"red"} />
+      </Canvas>
+      <Button title="Move it" onPress={updateValue} />
+    </>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+## Skia Values
+
+The basic `SkiaValue` is a value that stores some kind of Javascript value. It can be used to store numbers, strings, booleans, objects and even arrays:
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import { useValue } from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+const progress = useValue({ x: 100, y: 100 });
+const actualValue = progress.current; // actualValue is now {x: 100, y: 100}
+```
+
+There are a few more value types in the library that will be described below.
+
+## Derived value
+
+This value is a Skia Value that is derived from other Skia Values.
+It takes as its input one or more existing values and a function that will calculate the new value based on the input. The function will be evaluated every time the input value changes.
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import { useValue, useDerivedValue } from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+
+const radius = useValue(100);
+const theta = useValue(Math.PI);
+const length = useDerivedValue((r, t) => r * t, [radius, theta]);
+console.log(length.current); // 314.1592653589793
+```
+
+## Clock Value
+
+This value is a value that updates on every display frame on the device.
+The value will be updated with the number of milliseconds elapsed since it was started.
+
+```tsx twoslash
+import {
+  useClockValue,
+  Canvas,
+  Circle,
+  useDerivedValue,
+} from "@shopify/react-native-skia";
+
+const interval = 3000;
+
+const Demo = () => {
+  const clock = useClockValue();
+  const opacity = useDerivedValue(
+    (t) => {
+      return (t % interval) / interval;
+    },
+    [clock]
+  );
+  return (
+    <Canvas style={{ flex: 1 }}>
+      <Circle r={100} cx={100} cy={100} color="black" opacity={opacity} />
+    </Canvas>
+  );
+};
+```
