+## Using torch-mlir
+
+Torch-MLIR is primarily a project that is integrated into compilers to bridge them to PyTorch and ONNX. If contemplating a new integration, it may be helpful to refer to existing downstreams:
+
+* [IREE](https://github.com/iree-org/iree.git)
+* [Blade](https://github.com/alibaba/BladeDISC)
+
+While most of the project is exercised via testing paths, there are some ways that an end user can directly use the APIs without further integration:

 ### How to TorchToLinalg
 
-You will need to do 4 things:
+You will need to do 5 things:
+- make sure -DTORCH_MLIR_ENABLE_JIT_IR_IMPORTER=ON is added during build. This is to enable the python file used in `build_tools/update_torch_ods.sh` and `build_tools/update_abstract_interp_lib.sh`
 - make sure the op exists in `torch_ods_gen.py`, and then run `build_tools/update_torch_ods.sh`, and then build. This generates `GeneratedTorchOps.td`, which is used to generate the cpp and h files where ops function signatures are defined.
     - Reference [torch op registry](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/7451dd058564b5398af79bfc1e2669d75f9ecfa2/torch/csrc/jit/passes/utils/op_registry.cpp#L21)
 - make sure the op exists in `abstract_interp_lib_gen.py`, and then run `build_tools/update_abstract_interp_lib.sh`, and then build. This generates `AbstractInterpLib.cpp`, which is used to generate the cpp and h files where ops function signatures are defined.
