+## Detailed Guide
+
+### What this package provides
+A family of Material 3 Expressive app bars:
+- AppBarM3E — small/standard bar for Scaffold.appBar.
+- SliverAppBarM3E — Medium and Large collapsing variants for CustomScrollView.
+
+All variants are powered by m3e_design tokens for consistent color, typography, and shape.
+
+### Installation
+- Monorepo (local path): already configured in this repo. Ensure packages/m3e_design exists.
+- Pub (when published): add to pubspec.yaml
+
+```yaml
+dependencies:
+  app_bar_m3e: ^0.1.0
+  m3e_design: ^0.1.0
+```
+
+Minimum SDK: Dart >=3.5.0; Flutter >=3.22.0.
+
+### Dependencies
+- flutter
+- m3e_design
+
+### Quick start
+```dart
+Scaffold(
+  appBar: const AppBarM3E(
+    titleText: 'Inbox',
+  ),
+  body: ...,
+);
+```
+
+Medium/Large collapsing:
+```dart
+CustomScrollView(
+  slivers: [
+    SliverAppBarM3E(
+      variant: AppBarM3EVariant.large, // or AppBarM3EVariant.medium
+      titleText: 'Gallery',
+      pinned: true,
+    ),
+    // content...
+  ],
+)
+```
+
+### Key parameters
+- titleText: String? — Text title when you don't pass a custom title widget.
+- title: Widget? — Custom title; overrides titleText.
+- leading: Widget? — Leading widget (e.g. Back button).
+- actions: List<Widget> — Trailing actions.
+- centerTitle: bool — Centers the title on platforms that prefer it.
+- backgroundColor / foregroundColor: Color? — Override token-driven colors.
+- density: AppBarM3EDensity — compact/regular.
+- shapeFamily: AppBarM3EShapeFamily — round or square corners.
+- variant (SliverAppBarM3E): medium or large.
+- pinned / floating / snap (Sliver): Standard sliver app bar behaviors.
+
+### Theming with m3e_design
+App bars read the M3ETheme extension from ThemeData. Example:
+```dart
+final base = ThemeData(colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.teal));
+final m3e = M3ETheme.defaults(base.colorScheme);
+final theme = base.copyWith(extensions: [m3e]);
+```
+
+### Accessibility
+- Meets 48×48 dp minimum hit target recommendations via tokens.
+- Proper contrast from token-driven color system.

+## Detailed Guide
+
+### What this package provides
+A layout-only ButtonGroupM3E that propagates size/shape to its child buttons and ensures consistent spacing and overflow behavior for Material 3 Expressive buttons.
+
+### Installation
+- Monorepo (local path): already configured alongside m3e_design and button_m3e.
+- Pub (when published):
+```yaml
+dependencies:
+  button_group_m3e: ^0.1.0
+  m3e_design: ^0.1.0
+  button_m3e: ^0.1.0
+```
+
+Minimum SDK: Dart >=3.5.0.
+
+### Dependencies
+- flutter
+- m3e_design
+
+### Quick start
+```dart
+ButtonGroupM3E(
+  size: ButtonM3ESize.md,
+  shapeFamily: ButtonM3EShapeFamily.round,
+  children: [
+    ButtonM3E.filled(onPressed: () {}, label: const Text('One')),
+    ButtonM3E.outlined(onPressed: () {}, label: const Text('Two')),
+    ButtonM3E.text(onPressed: () {}, label: const Text('Three')),
+  ],
+)
+```
+
+### Key parameters
+- children: List<Widget> — Typically ButtonM3E instances.
+- size: ButtonM3ESize — xs | sm | md | lg | xl. Propagated to children when possible.
+- shapeFamily: ButtonM3EShapeFamily — round | square.
+- spacing: double? — Horizontal/vertical gap between children.
+- direction / wrap: Axis or wrap behavior depending on implementation.
+
+### Theming with m3e_design
+Spacing/shape defaults are derived from M3ETheme tokens; you can override explicitly per group or per button.
+
+### Accessibility
+- Maintains minimum tap targets for grouped buttons and preserves focus order.

+## Detailed Guide
+
+### What this package provides
+The design language core for Material 3 Expressive:
+- M3ETheme ThemeExtension providing tokens for color, typography, shapes, spacing, elevation, and motion.
+- Utilities to derive expressive surfaces (e.g., surfaceContainer levels) and harmonize with dynamic colors.
+
+### Installation
+```yaml
+dependencies:
+  m3e_design: ^0.1.0
+  dynamic_color: ^1.8.1
+```
+
+Minimum SDK: Dart >=3.5.0.
+
+### Quick start: add M3ETheme to ThemeData
+```dart
+final base = ThemeData(colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.teal));
+final m3e = M3ETheme.defaults(base.colorScheme);
+
+return MaterialApp(
+  theme: base.copyWith(extensions: [m3e]),
+  home: const MyHomePage(),
+);
+```
+
+With dynamic color (Android 12+):
+```dart
+DynamicColorBuilder(
+  builder: (lightDynamic, darkDynamic) {
+    final scheme = lightDynamic ?? ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.teal);
+    final base = ThemeData(colorScheme: scheme);
+    final m3e = M3ETheme.defaults(base.colorScheme);
+    return MaterialApp(theme: base.copyWith(extensions: [m3e]), home: const MyHomePage());
+  },
+)
+```
+
+### Token overview
+- Colors: surface, onSurface, container tiers, primary/secondary/tertiary, outline, inverse, etc.
+- Typography: headline/title/label/body scales incl. emphasized variants.
+- Shapes: round/square families, radii by size category.
+- Spacing: xs→xl ramps for consistent paddings.
+- Motion: durations/easings for expressive transitions.
+
+### Used by
+All sibling packages in this monorepo use M3E tokens for consistent UI.
