 🎵 Now let's get toasty 🎵
 
+ToastyFS works by running nodes on multiple machines. Clients using the ToastyFS C library can then send file operations to the cluster. Here's a quick example:
+
+```c
+#include <ToastyFS.h>
+
+int main(void)
+{
+    ToastyString addr = TOASTY_STR("127.0.0.1");
+    int          port = 8080;
+    ToastyString file = TOASTY_STR("/my_file.txt");
+    
+    // Connect to cluster
+    ToastyFS *toasty = toasty_connect(addr, port);
+    
+    // Create and write to a file
+    toasty_create_file(toasty, file, 4096);
+    toasty_write(toasty, file, 0, "Hello!", 6);
+    
+    // Read it back
+    char buf[6];
+    toasty_read(toasty, file, 0, buf, 6);
+    
+    // Done!
+    toasty_disconnect(toasty);
+    return 0;
+}
+```
