Hi, thanks for the contribution to the documentation! The documentation is indeed a bit scarse, mainly since I did lacked the time to set it up. I have (very) recently merged a more extensive documentation in #156, which I have been working on for a while. Some of the things are already described there, but maybe not as extensive. But feel free to extend it there. At the moment, it is still on the develop branch, but I plan to merge it into main soon-ish.
