+```
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Quick Start
+1. Open `index.html` in a modern browser
+2. Click "ENTER THE GRID" to initialize
+3. Use keyboard shortcuts or terminal for control
+4. Press 'E' to cycle through visual effects
+
+### Terminal Usage
+```bash
+# Open terminal
+Press 'T'
+
+# Switch to a specific effect
+effect tron
+
+# Adjust volume
+volume 7
+
+# Check what's playing
+status
+
+# Get help
+help
+```
+
+## Development Notes
+
+### Adding New Effects
+1. Create new effect function following the pattern:
+```javascript
+const newEffect = () => {
+  setTimeout(() => {
+    // Hydra effect code here
+    .out();
+  }, 100);
+};
+```
+
+2. Add to `hydraEffects` array
+3. Update terminal command switch statement
+4. Add to help text
+
+### Hydra Syntax Tips
+- Use `scrollX()` and `scrollY()` for positioning (not `translate()`)
+- Use `shape(32, ...)` for smooth circles (not `shape(4, ...)`)
+- Always end effect chains with `.out()`
+- Use `setTimeout()` wrapper for stability
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+1. **Effects not loading**: Check browser WebGL support
+2. **Audio not playing**: Check CORS and network connectivity
+3. **Mobile controls not working**: Ensure touch events are enabled
+4. **Terminal not responding**: Check for JavaScript errors in console
+
+### Browser Requirements
+- WebGL support for Hydra effects
+- Modern ES6+ JavaScript support
+- Audio API support for music playback
+- Local storage for playlist history
