+# RagDoc Builder
 
 This is a tool for building documentation metadata about JastAdd applications.
 
@@ -14,7 +13,22 @@ RagDoll depends on the following projects:
 * `extendj`
 * `se.llbit:jo-json`
 
-Usage
------
+## Building
 
-Use RagDoc Viewer to view the generated documentation.
+Build the tool with Gradle:
+
+    ./gradlew fatJar
+    java -jar rd-builder.jar -version
+
+
+## Usage
+
+Run RagDoc Builder just like a regular Java compiler. The output is written to
+the path specified by the `-d` option:
+
+    java -jar rd-builder.jar -d docs -classpath $CLASSPATH File1.java ...
+
+
+The documentation is generated as a set of `.json` files containing information about
+the classes and attributes in the input sources. This information can be viewed on
+a webpage using RagDoc Viewer.
