+### Implementing your own runtime 
+
+For those ones interested on implementing their own runtime, this SDK provides an easy way to load an in memory representation of a given workflow definition.
+This in-memory representation consists of a hierarchy of POJOS directly generated from the Serverless Workflow specification [schema](api/src/main/resources/schema/workflow.yaml), which ensures the internal representation is aligned with the specification schema. The root of the hierarchy is `io.serverlessworkflow.api.types.Workflow` class

+By default, Workflows are not validated against the schema (performance being the priority). If you want to enable validation, you can do that by using: 
+
+``` java
+try (InputStream in = new FileInputStream("simple.yaml")) {

+### Writing workflow definition to a JSON/YAML target
+
+Given a Workflow instance, you can store it using JSON or YAML format. 
 For example, to store a workflow using json format in a file called `simple.json`, you write
 
 ``` java
 try (OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("simple.json")) {
     WorkflowWriter.writeWorkflow(out, workflow, WorkflowFormat.JSON);
 }

+For additional writing helper methods, check [WorkflowWriter](api/src/main/java/io/serverlessworkflow/api/WorkflowWriter.java) class. 
+
+### Reference implementation
+
+The reference implementation provides a ready-to-use runtime that supports the Serverless Workflow Specification. It includes a workflow execution engine, validation utilities, and illustrative examples to help you quickly test and deploy your workflows. For details on usage, configuration, and supported features, see [readme](impl/README.md).
