 This extension enables efficient vector operations directly inside SQLite databases, making it ideal for on-device and edge AI applications. It supports various vector types and SIMD-accelerated distance functions.
 
+### Getting started
+
+* All vectors must have a fixed dimension per column, set during `vector_init`.
+* Only tables explicitly initialized using `vector_init` are eligible for vector search.
+* You **must run `vector_quantize()`** before using `vector_quantize_scan()`.
+* You can preload quantization at database open using `vector_quantize_preload()`.

 Performs quantization on the specified table and column. This precomputes internal data structures to support fast approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search.

 Functions in the `vector_convert_` family should be used in all `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, and `DELETE` statements to properly format vector values. However, they are *not* required when specifying input vectors for the `vector_full_scan` or `vector_quantize_scan` virtual tables.
 
-Optionally, these functions accept a `dimension INT` argument (placed before the vector value) to enforce a stricter sanity check, ensuring the input vector has the expected dimensionality.

 **Parameters:**
 
 * `value` (TEXT or BLOB):
 
   * If `TEXT`, it must be a JSON array (e.g., `"[0.1, 0.2, 0.3]"`).
   * If `BLOB`, no check is performed; the user must ensure the format matches the specified type and dimension.
 
+* `dimension` (INT, optional): Enforce a stricter sanity check, ensuring the input vector has the expected dimensionality.
