+
+= Introduction
+
+This package lets you create nice sequence diagrams using the CeTZ package.
+
+= Usage
+
+Simply import #link("https://typst.app/universe/package/chronos/")[chronos] and call the `diagram` function:
+#pad(left: 1em)[```typ
+#import "@preview/chronos:0.1.0"
+#chronos.diagram({
+  import chronos: *
+  ...
+})
+```]
+
+= Examples
+
+You can find the following examples and more in the #link("https://git.kb28.ch/HEL/circuiteria/src/branch/main/gallery")[gallery] directory
+
+== Some groups and sequences
+
+#example(```
+chronos.diagram({
+  import chronos: *
+  _seq("Alice", "Bob", comment: "Authentication Request")
+  _seq("Bob", "Alice", comment: "Authentication Failure")
+
+  _grp("My own label", desc: "My own label2", {
+    _seq("Alice", "Log", comment: "Log attack start")
+    _grp("loop", desc: "1000 times", {
+      _seq("Alice", "Bob", comment: "DNS Attack")
+    })
+    _seq("Alice", "Bob", comment: "Log attack end")
+  })
+})
+```, wrap: false, vertical: true)
+
+#pagebreak(weak: true)
+
+== Lifelines
+
+#example(```
+chronos.diagram({
+  import chronos: *
+  _seq("alice", "bob", comment: "hello", enable-dst: true)
+  _seq("bob", "bob", comment: "self call", enable-dst: true)

+    comment: "hello from thread 2",
+    enable-dst: true,
+    lifeline-style: (fill: rgb("#005500"))
+  )
+  _seq("bob", "george", comment: "create", create-dst: true)
+  _seq(

+})
+```, wrap: false, vertical: true)
+
+#pagebreak(weak: true)
+
+== Found and lost messages
+
+#example(```

+  _seq("?", "Alice", comment: [?->\ *short* to actor1])
+  _seq("[", "Alice", comment: [\[->\ *from start* to actor1])

+})
+```, wrap: false, vertical: true)
