-Python library for Hyperledger Iroha 2.
+Python library for **Hyperledger Iroha 2**.
 
-## Version
+This README provides essential information on how to install, build, and test the library, as well as useful references for deeper exploration.
 
-If you are using the latest iroha release, iroha2 MVP, then you should use the `main` branch. If you are using rc20 then you should use the 'stable' branch.

-## Install
+## Description
 
-To build, use the nightly-2024-09-09 version of the rust toolchain. Set it as the default before executing the build steps. TODO, complete list of dependencies.
+This library offers a Python interface for **Hyperledger Iroha 2**, providing classes and methods needed to integrate Iroha functionality into your Python projects. It covers core entities such as `Account`, `Asset`, `Domain`, `Transaction`, and many others.
 
-```sh
-maturin build
-pip install --break-system-packages target/wheels/iroha-0.1.0-cp312-cp312-manylinux_2_34_x86_64.whl
-```
+## Library Version
 
-The exact path to the .whl file may vary. After an installation, do a small test to check the installation was successful. Normally, this test will display the library's contents:
+- If you are using the **latest Iroha release** (iroha2 MVP), please use the `main` branch.  
+- If you are using **rc20**, switch to the `stable` branch.
 
-```
+## Environment Requirements
+
+- **Rust** toolchain pinned to `nightly-2024-09-09` (necessary for building the library).  
+- **Python 3.12** (based on the provided wheel file).  
+- **Poetry** (for running tests) and any other dependencies required by `maturin` for building.  
+- A functional local instance of **Hyperledger Iroha 2** for integration and testing purposes.
+
+## Installation and Build
+
+1. **Set the Rust toolchain** to the required nightly version:
+   ```sh
+   rustup override set nightly-2024-09-09
+   ```
+
+2. **Build** the library with `maturin`:
+   ```sh
+   maturin build
+   ```
+   This command generates a `.whl` file in the `target/wheels/` directory.
+
+3. **Install** the generated package:
+   ```sh
+   pip install --break-system-packages target/wheels/iroha-0.1.0-cp312-cp312-manylinux_2_34_x86_64.whl
+   ```
+   The exact filename may differ depending on your system and Python version.
+
+## Verification of Installation
+
+To verify successful installation:
+```sh
 python -c "import iroha; print(dir(iroha))"
+```
+If the library is correctly installed, you should see output similar to:
+```
 ['Account', 'AccountId', 'Asset', 'AssetDefinition', 'AssetDefinitionId', 'AssetId', 'AssetType', 'BlockHeader', 'Client', 'DomainId', 'Instruction', 'KeyPair', 'Mintable', 'NewAccount', 'NewAssetDefinition', 'PrivateKey', 'PublicKey', 'Role', 'SignedTransaction', 'TransactionQueryOutput', '__all__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', 'hash', 'iroha']
 ```
-
-If there was no error, you should be able to use iroha-python library.
-You may also see an error that ends like this:
-
+If you encounter an error like:
 ```
 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'iroha'
 ```
+it means the installation did not succeed correctly, and Python cannot locate the package. Double-check that you installed the wheel in the same Python environment where you’re running the command.
 
-This means that the pip install did not work properly.
+## Running Tests
 
-## Running the tests
+1. In the main Iroha repository, set up the local test environment:
+   ```sh
+   scripts/test_env.py setup
+   ```
+   This prepares a local Iroha test network.
 
-Running the tests requires you to have a running local test network of iroha. In the main iroha repository you must run 'scripts/test_env.py setup'. Then you can run the following command to run the python library test suite.
+2. In this repository (the Iroha Python one), run:
+   ```sh
+   poetry run python -m pytest tests/
+   ```
+   This command will execute the test suite, verifying the library’s functionality.
 
-```sh
-poetry run python -m pytest tests/
-```
