+## Azure.Data.Tables.Poco
+
+This library provides a simple way to interact with Azure Table Storage using POCOs. It is built on top of the Azure SDK
+for Table Storage.
+
+### Getting Started
+
+To get started, you will need to install the `DavidVollmers.Azure.Data.Tables.Poco` package from NuGet:
+
+```bash
+dotnet add package DavidVollmers.Azure.Data.Tables.Poco
+```
+
+### Usage
+
+To use the library, you will need to create a class that represents the entity you want to store in Table Storage.
+
+```csharp
+using DavidVollmers.Azure.Data.Tables.Poco;
+
+// Define the entity class without needing to inherit from TableEntity.
+public class AccountPoco
+{
+    // The Id property is a guid but will be stored as a string in Table Storage.
+    // It will be used as the PartitionKey and RowKey.
+    [PartitionKey]
+    [RowKey]
+    [StoreAsString]
+    public Guid Id { get; set; }
+
+    // Enums will be stored as integers in Table Storage.
+    public AccountState State { get; set; }
+
+    // You can ignore properties that you don't want to store in Table Storage.
+    [IgnoreDataMember] public string PasswordHash { get; set; } = null!;
+
+    public string MailAddress { get; set; } = null!;
+
+    public DateTimeOffset CreatedAt { get; set; } = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow;
+
+    // You can specify the name of the column in Table Storage.
+    // In this case the DateTimeOffset will be mapped to the built-in "Timestamp" property of the entity.
+    [Storable("Timestamp")] public DateTimeOffset UpdatedAt { get; set; }
+
+    public DateTimeOffset? LastLoginAt { get; set; }
+
+    // You can also store getters-only properties.
+    public bool IsInternal => MailAddress.EndsWith("@vollmers.org");
+    
+    // Complex types are supported by storing them as serializable types. (e.g. JSON, string, etc.)
+    [StoreAsString] public Uri? AvatarUrl { get; set; }
+}
+
+public enum AccountState
+{
+    Inactive,
+    Active,
+    Locked
+}
+```
+
+Next, you will need to create an instance of `TableClient` and use it to interact with Table Storage.
+
+```csharp
+// Create a new instance of your POCO.
+var accountPoco = new AccountPoco
+{
+    Id = Guid.NewGuid(),
+    State = AccountState.Active,
+    PasswordHash = Guid.NewGuid().ToString(),
+    MailAddress = "david@vollmers.org",
+    AvatarUrl = new Uri("https://ui-avatars.com/api/?name=David+Vollmers")
+};
+
+// Create a new instance of TableServiceClient like normally.
+var client = new TableServiceClient("UseDevelopmentStorage=true");
+
+// Use the GetTableClient extension method to get your TypedTableClient instance.
+var tableClient = client.GetTableClient<AccountPoco>();
+
+// Create the table if it doesn't exist.
+await tableClient.CreateTableIfNotExistsAsync();
+
+// Add the entity to the table.
+var response = await tableClient.AddAsync(accountPoco);
