 ## API
 
+### Presets
+
+Lowdb provides four presets for common cases.
+
+- `JSONPreset(filename, defaultData)`
+- `JSONSyncPreset(filename, defaultData)`
+- `LocalStoragePreset(name, defaultData)`
+- `SessionStoragePreset(name, defaultData)`
+
+See [`src/examples/`](src/examples) directory for usage.
+
+Lowdb is extremely flexible, if you need to extend it or modify its behavior, use the classes and adapters below instead of the presets.
+
 ### Classes
 
 Lowdb has two classes (for asynchronous and synchronous adapters).
