 This page describes how to use and develop with L<Frey>
 
+=head1 Designing user interaction flows
+
+Frey is all about creating Moose classes as your interaction with pages.
+Each page is instance of class with some parametars received with post or
+get request.
+
+If you want to access those parameters in your object, you have to define
+attributes for it using L<Moose/has>
+
+You can also generate result in three different forms:
+
+=over 20
+
+=item as_markup
+
+HTML content
+
+=item as_sponge
+
+Tabular output
+
+FIXME link to description
+
+=item as_data
+
+Any perl hash structure
+

+
+Frey doesn't have html templates. Since your methods are part of REST URIs,
+it doesn't make sense to separate html from object itself, which represent
+web page. L<Frey::Web> provides role which has a bunch of helpful things
+when creating html.
+
+Basically, if html you are generating in readable code semantically correct
+to you, it the right track.
+
+You don't even have to create initial entry form as L<Frey::Run>,
+which will start your L<Moose> classes, will call L<Frey::Action>
+for help and generate initial form for you.
+
+Creating files is mess, so L<Frey::ClassCreator/create_class_source> will
+create class and test skeleton for you.
+
+If I did it right, it should read similar to human language, like SmallTalk.
+
+To make things simple, there are few convertions (with nod to Ruby on Rails)
+which will help you get started:
+
+=head2 default parametars
+
+=head2 html markup
+
+HTML markup should be enclosed in C< qq| > and C< | > quotes. There is also
+funny but very readable convention of multi line html when you have to
+intermix confitions:
+
+  my $html
+    = qq|<h1>First</h1>|
+    . ( $is_second ? qq|<h2>Second</h2>| : '' )
+    . qq|<h3>Third</h3>|
+    ;
+
+This will be checked and reported at some point. Ideally, I would like to
+write just
+
+  my $html
+    = qq|<h1>First</h1>|
+    . $is_second ? qq|<h2>Second</h2>| : ''
+    . qq|<h3>Third</h3>|
+    ;
+
+which is valid perl syntax but doesn't work as expected.
+
+=head2 examples
+
+To help you get started, here are few implemented flows in Frey:
+
+=over 20
+
+=item L<Frey::Shell::Grep>
+
+Simple interaction with C<grep>
+
+=item L<Frey::SVK>
+
+Gather data, display selection form with checkboxes
+
+=item L<Frey::IconBrowser>
+
+Display a huge amount of icons with single HTTP request
+
+=back
+
 =head1 Command-line integration
 
 One of key points is that L<Frey> runs under your user. This means it has
