-[Short description of the addon.]
+<p align="center">Provides REST and JSON:API Implementations of the legacy <a href="https://api.emberjs.com/ember-data/release/classes/%3CInterface%3E%20Adapter">Adapter Interface</a></p>
 
+> **Caution** ⚠️ **This is LEGACY documentation** for a feature that is no longer encouraged to be used.
+> If starting a new app or thinking of implementing a new adapter, consider writing a [Handler](https://api.emberjs.com/ember-data/release/classes/%3CInterface%3E%20Handler)
+> instead to be used with the [RequestManager](https://github.com/emberjs/data/tree/main/packages/request#readme)
 
-Compatibility
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+## Installation
 
-* Ember.js v3.4 or above
-* Ember CLI v2.13 or above
+This package is currently installed when installing `ember-data`.
 
+If installing `@ember-data/` packages individually install using your javascript package manager of choice. For instance with [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/)
 
-Installation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+```no-highlight
+pnpm add @ember-data/adapter
+```
+
+## 🚀 Setup
+
+If using `ember-data` no additional setup is necesssary.
+
+> **Note** When using [ember-data](https://github.com/emberjs/data/blob/main/packages/-ember-data) the below
+> configuration is handled for you automatically.
+
+To use legacy adapters you will need to have installed and configured the LegacyNetworkHandler from [@ember-data/legacy-compat](https://github.com/emberjs/data/blob/main/packages/-ember-data)
+
+```no-highlight
+pnpm add @ember-data/legacy-compat
+```
+
+```ts
+import Store, { CacheHandler } from '@ember-data/store';
+import RequestManager from '@ember-data/request';
+import { LegacyNetworkHandler } from '@ember-data/legacy-compat';
+
+export default class extends Store {
+  requestManager = new RequestManager();
 
+  constructor(args) {
+    super(args);
+    this.requestManager.use([LegacyNetworkHandler]);
+    this.requestManager.useCache(CacheHandler);
+  }
+}
 ```
-ember install @ember-data/adapter
+
+
+## Usage
+
+To use as either a per-type or application adapter, export one of the
+implementations within the `adapters/` directory of your app as appropriate.
+
+For instance, to configure an application adapter to use `JSON:API`
+
+
+*app/adapters/application.ts*
+```ts
+export { default } from '@ember-data/adapter/json-api';
 ```
 
+By default adapters are resolved by looking for an adapter with the same name in the adapters folder as the `type` given to `store.adapterFor(<type>)`, falling back to looking for an adapter named `application`.
+
+**Overriding Resolution**
 
-Usage
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+If you would like to avoid using resolver semantics and your application has only one or a few adapters, you may ovveride the `adapterFor` hook on the store.
 
-[Longer description of how to use the addon in apps.]
+```ts
+import Store from '@ember-data/store';
+import Adapter from '@ember-data/adapter/json-api';
 
+class extends Store {
+  #adapter = new Adapter();
+
+  adapterFor() {
+    return this.#adapter;
+  }
+}
+```
