 ## Introduction
 
-This is an experimental lightweight, zero dependency state manager that attempts to replicate core MobX features without using Proxy objects.
+Pico State Manager is an experimental, lightweight, zero-dependency state manager that replicates core MobX features without using Proxy objects.
 
 It also provides a helper function to make Lit components observers and updates them on changes.
 
-Currently, the non minified bundle size is `4938 bytes` and is around `~1.2kb` gzipped.
+Currently, the non-minified bundle size is `5992 bytes` and around `1536 bytes` gzipped.
 
-## Partially Supported Features
+You can also import only the specific modules you need from the source to further reduce the size.
 
-- `makeObservable`: generates a new class whose instances are observable
-- `observe`: callback when the instance of an observable class changes
-- `reaction`: react to specific changes
-- `computed`: cache computed values
+## Partially Supported Features
 
-Also, an opinionated approach for tracking nested dependencies with `track` functions is added. <br>
-If an observable wants to get notified by another one, these functions can be used.
+- `makeObservable`: Generates a new class whose instances are observable.
+- `observe`: Callback when the instance of an observable class changes.
+- `reaction`: React to specific changes.
+- `track`: Tracks other observables and notifies own observers on change.
+- `subscribe`: Subscribe to changes in an observable.
+- `notify`: Notify all subscribers of changes.
+- `computed`: Cache computed values.
 
 ## How to Use
 
-Add the picosm dependency
+Add the picosm dependency:
 
 ```bash
-npm add https://github.com/yesil/picosm/releases/download/v1.0.2/picosm-1.0.2.tgz
+npm add https://github.com/yesil/picosm/releases/download/v1.0.3/picosm-1.0.3.tgz
 ```
 
 See the unit test: https://github.com/yesil/picosm/blob/main/test/LitObserver.test.js <br>
 See the demo app source code: https://github.com/yesil/picosm/tree/main/app for a more comprehensive example.
 
+## API Documentation
+
+### `makeObservable`
+
+Generates a new class whose instances are observable.
+
+### `observe`
+
+Creates an observer for a given observable.
+
+Returns a `disposer` function.
+
+### `reaction`
+
+React to specific changes.
+
+Returns a `disposer` function.
+
+### `track`
+
+Tracks other observables and notifies own observers on change.
+
+Returns a `disposer` function.
+
+### `subscribe`
+
+An observable becomes automatically a subscription queue, where one can register several subscriptions for receiving arbitrary messages.
+
+Returns a `disposer` function.
+
+#### Example
+
+```javascript
+const disposer = subscribe(observableInstance, (message) => {
+  console.log('Message received', message);
+});
+```
+
+### `notify`
+
+Notify all subscribers of changes.
+
+#### Example
+
+```javascript
+notify(observableInstance, message);
+```
+
+### `computed`
+
+Cache computed values.
