+## node-unifi class usage examples
+
+This directory contains some javascript code examples which demonstrate usage of the node-unifi class and can be used as a good starting point for your own custom code.
+
+### Usage
+
+You can either copy the examples files here to your own working directory, edit and run them. All you have to modify is the `require('../unifi.js')` statement, which should be changed to `require('node-unifi')` once node-unifi has been globally installed. Or you run these examples directly in here.
+
+#### Executing scripts from the command-line
+
+Most of the included example scripts can be run from a command shell:
+
+
+```sh
+$ ./first-steps.js <IP> <PORT> <USERNAME> <PASSWORD>
+```
+
+Just replace all `<...>` identifiers with the proper parameters so that the script can directly communicate with the selected UniFi controller.
+
+### Contribute
+
+If you would like to share your own example file(s), please open an issue and include your code there or else create a pull request.
+
+## Important Disclaimer
+
+Use these examples at your own risk!
