 ### Writing custom decoders and encoders
 
-If you look at the type signature of `Json.Decode.array`, for example, you'll see it takes an `'a decoder` and returns an
-`'a array decoder`. `'a decoder` is just an alias for `Js.Json.t -> 'a`, so if we expand the type signature of `array`
-we'll get `(Js.Json.t -> 'a) -> Js.Json.t -> 'a array`. We can now see that it is a function that takes a decoder and
-returns a function, itself a decoder. Applying the `int` decoder to `array` will give us an `int array decoder`, a
-function `Js.Json.t -> int array`.

 #### Builders

-currying we just need to apply it where we'd otherwise use a fixed decoder. Say we want to be able to decode both
-`int point`s and `float point`s. First we'd have to parameterize the type:

+## PPX for OCaml native
+
+A similar PPX is exposed in the `melange-json-native` package, which works with
+the `yojson` JSON representation instead of `Js.Json.t`.
+
+### Installation
+
+The PPX is included in `melange-json-native` package, so that package will have
+to be installed first:
+
+```sh
+opam install melange-json-native
+```
+
+To use it, add the `dune` configuration to your project:
+
+```dune
+(executable
+ ...
+ (preprocess (pps melange-json-native.ppx)))
+```
+
+### Usage
+
+From the usage perspective, the PPX is similar to the Melange one:
+
+```ocaml
+type t = {
+  a: int;
+  b: string;
+} [@@deriving json]
+```
+
+This will generate the following pair of functions:
+
+```ocaml
+val of_json : Yojson.Basic.json -> t
+val to_json : t -> Yojson.Basic.json
+```
+
+Refer to the [PPX for Melange](#ppx-for-melange) section for more details on
+usage patterns.
