-## Example usage
+## Usage
+### Scripts and package development
+Using Infiltrator for debugging packages or scripts requires a little bit of setup.
+
+1. Either your current environment or an environment futher down the [environment stack](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/code-loading/#Environment-stacks)
+must contain Infiltrator.jl. I would recommend putting Infiltrator.jl into your global `@v1.xx` environment so that it is always loaded.
+2. Load [Revise.jl](https://github.com/timholy/Revise.jl) or use [VS Code's inline evaluation](https://www.julia-vscode.org/docs/stable/userguide/runningcode/)
+to seamlessly update your package code.
+3. Load your package.
+4. Add `Main.@infiltrate` statements as breakpoints wherever desired.
+5. Run a function that ends up executing the method containing the breakpoint.
+
+The ordering of steps 3 and 4 is important: loading your package after adding `Main.@infiltrate` statements will
+prevent if from loading, because that macro does not exist during precompilation.
 
+If you absolutely cannot modfiy your code after loading it initially, then the `infiltrate` function *can* be used
+instead. An advantage of the macro form is that it will fail tests, so you don't end up committing or merging code
+containing infiltration points.

+## Advanced
+### Auto-loading Infiltrator.jl
+Infiltrator loads very fast (~3ms on my machine) and is generally safe to load in `startup.jl`.
+
+If, for whatever reason, you do not want to unconditionally load Infiltrator in your `startup.jl`,
+you can use the following convenience macro instead. It will automatically load
+Infiltrator.jl (if it is in your environment stack) and subsequently call `@infiltrate`:
+```julia
+macro autoinfiltrate(cond=true)
+    pkgid = Base.PkgId(Base.UUID("5903a43b-9cc3-4c30-8d17-598619ec4e9b"), "Infiltrator")
+    if !haskey(Base.loaded_modules, pkgid)
+        try
+            Base.eval(Main, :(using Infiltrator))
+        catch err
+            @error "Cannot load Infiltrator.jl. Make sure it is included in your environment stack."
