+pip3 install --user youtube-dl
+```
+

 ```sh
-nim c -d:ssl -r cli_tube.nim emacs
+npm install --global peerflix
+```
 
-# If your search query has multiple words, use quotes
-nim c -d:ssl -r cli_tube.nim 'nim lang'
+### Installing using Nimble
+
+NimCoon can be installed from Nimble repositories:
+
+``` sh
+nimble install nimcoon
 ```
 
-### Using the binary
+You can also install from source by running the following command:
 
-Please use the binary in the repository for now.
-Will setup GitLab CI to publish proper binaries later.
+```sh
+nimble install
+```
+
+### Installing binary
+
+Download the latest build from GitlabCI (amd64 GNU/Linux only).
 
 ```sh
-./cli_tube emacs
+wget https://gitlab.com/njoseph/nimcoon/-/jobs/artifacts/master/download?job=compile -O artifacts.zip
+unzip artifacts.zip
+```
 
-./cli_tube 'nim lang'
+Copy the binary to somewhere on your path like /usr/local/bin
+
+## Usage
+
+```sh
+nimcoon "emacs"
+
+# If your search query has multiple words, use quotes
+nimcoon "nim lang"
+
+# Play audio of the first search result
+nimcoon -m -l "counting stars"
+
+# Download audio of the first search result
+nimcoon -mld "counting stars"
+
+# Play direct video link
+nimcoon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOEMv0S8AcA
+
+# Add -d to download or -m to select only audio or both
+nimcoon -md https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hT_nvWreIhg
+```
+
+After the search results are displayed, you can enter a number to play one
+result, "all" to play all the results or "q" to quit the program. 
+
+If a number is entered, after the selected search result is played, the results
+are redisplayed, so that you can play the other results without having to search
+again.
