+# Rough.js API
+
+The main object to work with is RoughCanvas. This canvas object can  be used to create different shapes, lines, curves and paths. 
+
+The canvas object has properties that can be used to configure the overall style (default style) of all the objects drawn on it. For example, changing the fill-color or the stroke-width will change the fill-color and stroke-width of all the objects. Individual objects can override these properties.
