@@ -43,6 +43,8 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0
   `Label::text` is now named `display` and `Label::new()` now accepts an
   `IntoReadOnly<T>` instead of `IntoValue<String>`.
 - `Dynamic<Children>::wrap` has been renamed to `into_wrap` for consistency.
+- Cushy now has its own `KeyEvent` type, as winit's has private fields. This
+  prevented simulating input in a `VirtualWindow`.

@@ -7,6 +7,54 @@ This is a user's guide for [Cushy][cushy], a [Rust][rust] GUI crate. The
 functionality quickly. This guide is aimed to providing an example-rich
 walkthrough of how to use and extend Cushy.
 
+## A "Hello, World" Example
+
+Here's the simplest "Hello, World" example:
+
+```rust,no_run,no_playground
+{{#include ../guide-examples/examples/hello-world.rs:example}}
+```
+
+When run, the app just displays the text as one would hope:
+
+![Hello World Example](./examples/hello_world.png)
+
+That was a little too easy. Let's take it a step further by letting a user type
+in their name and have a label display "Hello, {name}!":
+
+```rust,no_run,no_playground
+{{#include ../guide-examples/examples/intro.rs:example}}
+```
+
+This app looks like this when executed:
+
+![Hello Ferris Example](./examples/intro.png)
+
+In this example, both `name` and `greeting` are [`Dynamic<String>`s][dynamic]. A
+`Dynamic<T>` is an `Arc<Mutex<T>>`-like type that is able to invoke a set of
+callbacks when its contents is changed. This simple feature is the core of
+Cushy's reactive data model.
+
+Each time `name` is changed, the `map_each` closure will be executed and
+`greeting` will be updated with the result. Now that we have the individual
+pieces of data our user interface is going to work with, we can start assembling
+the interface.
+
+First, we create `name_input` by converting the `Dynamic<String>` into a text
+[`Input<String>`][input]. Since `Dynamic<String>` can be used as a
+[`Label`][label], all that's left is laying out our two widgets.
+
+To layout `name_input` and `greeting`, we use a [`Stack`][stack] to lay out the
+widgets as rows.
+
+Don't worry if this example seems a bit magical or confusing as to how it works.
+Cushy can feel magical to use. But, it should never be a mystery. The goal of
+this guide is to try and explain how and why Cushy works the way it does.
