-# API
+# API Reference
 
 We classify the API calls by 'core', 'extensions', 'tooling', and 'network', following the same API spec organization available at [ipfs/specs](https://github.com/ipfs/specs/tree/master/api).
 
 The tests folder also contains great examples that can be used to understand how this client library interacts with the HTTP-API. You can find the [tests here](test/api).

-## Callbacks and promises
-
-If you do not pass in a callback all api functions will return a `Promise`, for example
-
-```js
-ipfs.id()
-  .then(function (id) {
-    console.log('my id is: ', id)
-  })
-```
-
-This relies on a global `Promise` object. If you are in an environemnt where that is not
-yet available you need to bring your own polyfill.

+#### Running the daemon with the right port

+To interact with the API, you need to have a local daemon running (at the moment; we have plans to make it work independently). It needs to be open on the right port: `5001`. This is the default.

 ## Contribute
 
-Contributions are welcome! Please check out the [issues](https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-api/issues).
+The js-ipfs API is a work in progress. As such, there's a few things you can do right now to help out:
 
-Some general things we always need are more tests. If you can add them, we'll work on making them pass (hopefully with you!). 
+* **[Check out the existing issues](https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-api/issues)**!
+* **Perform code reviews**. More eyes will help a) speed the project along b) ensure quality and c) reduce possible future bugs.
+* **Add tests**. There can never be enough tests.
+* **Contribute to the [FAQ repository](https://github.com/ipfs/faq/issues)** with any questions you have about IPFS or any of the relevant technology. A good example would be asking, 'What is a merkledag tree?'. If you don't know a term, odds are, someone else doesn't either. Eventually, we should have a good understanding of where we need to improve communications and teaching together to make IPFS and IPN better.
