+# PHP 8.5 Pipe Operator Support
+
+This document demonstrates how to use PHP 8.5's new pipe operator (`|>`) with the monads library.
+
+## What is the Pipe Operator?
+
+The pipe operator (`|>`) allows you to chain function calls in a more readable, left-to-right manner. Instead of deeply nested function calls or intermediate variables, you can write:
+
+```php
+$result = $value
+    |> trim(...)
+    |> strtoupper(...)
+    |> fn($x) => str_replace(' ', '-', $x);
+```
+
+This is equivalent to:
+```php
+$result = str_replace(' ', '-', strtoupper(trim($value)));
+```
+
+## Using the Pipe Operator with Monads
+
+### Option Monad with Pipe Operator
+
+The library provides pipe-friendly helper functions in the `Superscript\Monads\Option\Pipe` namespace:
+
+```php
+use function Superscript\Monads\Option\Pipe\{option, map, filter, andThen, unwrapOr};
+
+// Process user input with validation
+$username = $rawInput
+    |> option(...)                              // Wrap in Option
+    |> map(...)(fn($x) => trim($x))            // Trim whitespace
+    |> filter(...)(fn($x) => strlen($x) > 0)   // Filter empty strings
+    |> map(...)(fn($x) => strtolower($x))      // Convert to lowercase
+    |> unwrapOr(...)('guest');                 // Provide default
+
+// Safe array access
+$users = [
+    1 => ['name' => 'Alice'],
+    2 => ['name' => 'Bob'],
+];
+
+$userName = $userId
+    |> fn($id) => $users[$id] ?? null
+    |> option(...)
+    |> map(...)(fn($u) => $u['name'])
+    |> unwrapOr(...)('Unknown');
+
+// Validation with flatMap
+$validateAge = fn(?int $age) => 
+    $age !== null && $age >= 18 && $age <= 100 
+        ? Some($age) 
+        : None();
+
+$result = $userAge
+    |> $validateAge(...)
+    |> map(...)(fn($a) => "Age: $a years")
+    |> unwrapOr(...)('Invalid age');
+```
+
+### Result Monad with Pipe Operator
+
+The library provides pipe-friendly helper functions in the `Superscript\Monads\Result\Pipe` namespace:
+
+```php
+use function Superscript\Monads\Result\Pipe\{toOk, map, andThen, mapErr, unwrapOr, matchResult};
+
+// Validate and process numbers
+$parseInt = fn(string $s): int => (int) $s;
+$validate = fn(int $x) => $x > 0 ? Ok($x) : Err("Must be positive");
+$double = fn(int $x): int => $x * 2;
+
+$result = $input
+    |> toOk(...)
+    |> map(...)($parseInt)
+    |> andThen(...)($validate)
+    |> map(...)($double)
+    |> unwrapOr(...)(0);
+
+// Safe division chain
+$divide = fn(int $a, int $b) => 
+    $b === 0 ? Err("Division by zero") : Ok($a / $b);
+
+$result = 100
+    |> fn($x) => $divide($x, 2)
+    |> andThen(...)(fn($x) => $divide((int)$x, 5))
+    |> unwrapOr(...)(0);
+
+// Error handling with match
+$result = $value
+    |> toOk(...)
+    |> map(...)(fn($x) => $x * 2)
+    |> matchResult(...)(
+        fn($e) => "Error: $e",
+        fn($v) => "Success: $v"
+    );
+
+// Parse JSON with validation
+$parseJson = function (string $json) {
+    try {
+        return Ok(json_decode($json, true, 512, JSON_THROW_ON_ERROR));
+    } catch (Exception $e) {
+        return Err("Invalid JSON");
+    }
+};
+
+$validateUser = fn(array $data) => 
+    isset($data['name']) && isset($data['email'])
+        ? Ok($data)
+        : Err("Missing required fields");
+
+$extractName = fn(array $user): string => $user['name'];
+
+$userName = $jsonString
+    |> $parseJson(...)
+    |> andThen(...)($validateUser)
+    |> map(...)($extractName)
+    |> unwrapOr(...)('Unknown');
+```
+
+## Method Chaining (Works in PHP 8.3+)
+
+The monads already work great with the pipe operator because they support method chaining:
+
+```php
+// Option chaining with pipe
+$result = $value
+    |> Some(...)
+    |> fn($opt) => $opt->map(fn($x) => $x * 2)
+    |> fn($opt) => $opt->filter(fn($x) => $x > 10)
+    |> fn($opt) => $opt->unwrapOr(0);
+
+// Or using the traditional method chaining (PHP 8.3+)
+$result = Some($value)
+    ->map(fn($x) => $x * 2)
+    ->filter(fn($x) => $x > 10)
+    ->unwrapOr(0);
+```
+
+## Real-World Examples
+
+### Example 1: Processing Form Input
+
+```php
+use function Superscript\Monads\Option\Pipe\{option, map, filter, unwrapOr};
+
+// Clean and validate email
+$cleanEmail = $formData['email'] ?? null
+    |> option(...)
+    |> map(...)(fn($e) => trim($e))
+    |> filter(...)(fn($e) => filter_var($e, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL))
+    |> map(...)(fn($e) => strtolower($e))
+    |> unwrapOr(...)(null);
+
+if ($cleanEmail === null) {
+    throw new ValidationException('Invalid email');
+}
+```
+
+### Example 2: Database Query with Error Handling
+
+```php
+use function Superscript\Monads\Result\Pipe\{toOk, andThen, map, unwrapOr};
+
+$findUser = fn(int $id) => 
+    DB::find('users', $id) 
+        ? Ok(DB::find('users', $id)) 
+        : Err("User not found");
+
+$validateUser = fn($user) => 
+    $user['active'] 
+        ? Ok($user) 
+        : Err("User is inactive");
+
+$formatUser = fn($user) => [
+    'id' => $user['id'],
+    'name' => $user['name'],
+    'email' => $user['email'],
+];
+
+$userData = $userId
+    |> $findUser(...)
+    |> andThen(...)($validateUser)
+    |> map(...)($formatUser)
+    |> unwrapOr(...)(null);
+```
+
+### Example 3: Configuration Loading
+
+```php
+use function Superscript\Monads\Result\Pipe\{toOk, map, andThen, matchResult};
+
+$loadConfig = function(string $path) {
+    if (!file_exists($path)) {
+        return Err("Config file not found");
+    }
+    
+    try {
+        $content = file_get_contents($path);
+        $config = json_decode($content, true, 512, JSON_THROW_ON_ERROR);
+        return Ok($config);
+    } catch (Exception $e) {
+        return Err("Invalid config format");
+    }
+};
+
+$validateConfig = fn(array $config) =>
+    isset($config['app_name']) && isset($config['version'])
+        ? Ok($config)
+        : Err("Missing required config keys");
+
+$config = $configPath
+    |> $loadConfig(...)
+    |> andThen(...)($validateConfig)
+    |> matchResult(...)(
+        fn($err) => throw new ConfigException($err),
+        fn($cfg) => $cfg
+    );
+```
+
+## Helper Functions Reference
+
+### Option Pipe Helpers
+
+- `option($value)` - Wrap value in Option (Some if non-null, None if null)
+- `map($option)($fn)` - Transform the contained value
+- `filter($option)($predicate)` - Filter based on predicate
+- `andThen($option)($fn)` - FlatMap operation
+- `unwrapOr($option)($default)` - Extract value or return default
+- `isSomeAnd($option)($predicate)` - Check if Some and satisfies predicate
+
+### Result Pipe Helpers
+
+- `toOk($value)` - Wrap value in Ok
+- `toErr($error)` - Wrap error in Err
+- `map($result)($fn)` - Transform the success value
+- `mapErr($result)($fn)` - Transform the error value
+- `andThen($result)($fn)` - FlatMap operation
+- `unwrapOr($result)($default)` - Extract value or return default
+- `matchResult($result)($errFn, $okFn)` - Handle both cases
+
+## Why Pipe-Friendly Helpers?
+
+While the monads already have great method chaining APIs, the pipe-friendly helpers make it easier to compose operations in a functional style:
+
+1. **Clearer data flow** - Read operations left-to-right
+2. **Better composition** - Easier to build reusable pipelines
+3. **Functional style** - Matches the pipe operator's functional paradigm
+4. **Point-free style** - Can pass functions directly without wrapping
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+If you're already using the library, you don't need to change anything! The traditional method chaining still works:
+
+```php
+// Traditional (still works great)
+$result = Some($value)
+    ->map(fn($x) => $x * 2)
+    ->filter(fn($x) => $x > 10)
+    ->unwrapOr(0);
+
+// With pipe operator (PHP 8.5+)
+$result = $value
+    |> Some(...)
+    |> fn($opt) => $opt->map(fn($x) => $x * 2)
+    |> fn($opt) => $opt->filter(fn($x) => $x > 10)
+    |> fn($opt) => $opt->unwrapOr(0);
+
+// With pipe helpers (most functional)
+$result = $value
+    |> option(...)
+    |> map(...)(fn($x) => $x * 2)
+    |> filter(...)(fn($x) => $x > 10)
+    |> unwrapOr(...)(0);
+```
+
+Choose the style that best fits your codebase and preferences!

 ## Usage
 
+### 🚀 PHP 8.5 Pipe Operator Support
+
+This library fully supports PHP 8.5's new pipe operator (`|>`), enabling clean, functional-style data transformations:
+
+```php
+use function Superscript\Monads\Option\Pipe\{option, map, filter, unwrapOr};
+
+// Clean and readable data pipeline
+$username = $userInput
+    |> option(...)                              // Wrap in Option
+    |> map(...)(fn($x) => trim($x))            // Trim whitespace
+    |> filter(...)(fn($x) => strlen($x) > 0)   // Filter empty
+    |> map(...)(fn($x) => strtolower($x))      // Lowercase
+    |> unwrapOr(...)('guest');                 // Default value
+```
+
+See [PIPE_OPERATOR.md](PIPE_OPERATOR.md) for comprehensive examples and migration guide.
+
 ### Option Monad
 
 The `Option` type represents an optional value: every `Option` is either `Some` and contains a value, or `None`, and does not. This is a safer alternative to using `null`.
