 * Provides middleware for tracking response time metrics automatically

-## Usage
+## Installation
 
-### Step 1: Install Through Composer
+Require this package with composer.
 
-```
+```shell
 composer require chaseconey/laravel-datadog-helper
 ```
 
-### Step 2: Add Service Provider to providers array in app config file.
+Laravel 5.5 uses Package Auto-Discovery, so doesn't require you to manually add the ServiceProvider.
+
+If you would like to install the request metric tracking middleware, add the Datadog middleware class like so:
 
 ``` php
 
-// config/app.php
+// app/Http/Kernal.php
 
-'providers' => [
+protected $middleware = [
     ...
-    
-    ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\LaravelDatadogHelperServiceProvider::class,
+
+    \ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\Middleware\LaravelDatadogMiddleware::class
 ];
 ```
 
-### Step 3: Add Facade
+### Without Auto-Discovery (or Laravel < 5.5)
+
+If you don't use auto-discovery, or you are using an older version of Laravel, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in `config/app.php`
 
 ``` php
 
 // config/app.php
 
-'aliases' => [
+'providers' => [
     ...
 
-    'Datadog' => ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\Datadog::class
+    ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\LaravelDatadogHelperServiceProvider::class,
 ];
 ```
 
-### Step 4: Register Middleware
+If you want to use the facade, add this to your facades in `config/app.php`:
 
 ``` php
 
-// app/Http/Kernal.php
+// config/app.php
 
-protected $middleware = [
+'aliases' => [
     ...
-
-    \ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\Middleware\LaravelDatadogMiddleware::class
+    
+    'Datadog' => ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\Datadog::class
 ];
 ```
 
-### Step 5: Publish configuration
+For configuration options, copy the package config to your local config with the publish command:
 
-```php
+```shell
 php artisan vendor:publish --provider="ChaseConey\LaravelDatadogHelper\LaravelDatadogHelperServiceProvider"
 ```
