+This plugin uses [Alpaca Forms](http://alpacajs.org/) to allow "easy" form creation
+in reStructuredText documents.
+
+Here's an example:
+
+```
+.. form::
+
+   {
+    "schema": {
+        "title": "What do you think of Alpaca?",
+        "type": "object",
+        "properties": {
+            "name": {
+                "type": "string",
+                "title": "Name"
+            },
+            "ranking": {
+                "type": "string",
+                "title": "Ranking",
+                "enum": ['excellent', 'not too shabby', 'alpaca built my hotrod']
+            }
+        }
+    }
+```
+
+Instead of using the form description as content for the directive, you can put it in a separate file
+and load it like this:
+
+```
+.. form::
+   :file: formdescription.json
+```
+
+A description of how Alpaca works is beyond the scope of this README, and you should read
+[their fine docs](http://alpacajs.org/tutorial.html) instead.
+
+You will probably want to add something like this to your config:
+
+
+```
+EXTRA_HEAD_DATA += """
+<link type="text/css" href="//code.cloudcms.com/alpaca/1.5.8/bootstrap/alpaca.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
+"""
+
+BODY_END += """
+<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/handlebars.js/1.3.0/handlebars.js"></script>
+<script type="text/javascript" src="//code.cloudcms.com/alpaca/1.5.8/bootstrap/alpaca.min.js"></script>
+<script>
+$(document).ready(function() {
+    $('div.alpacaform').each(function(index, element) {
+        data = eval(element.id+'_data');
+        Alpaca(element, data);
+    });});
+</script>
+"""
+```
