-### Usage
+With this configuration, Sentry will monitor for exceptions and performance issues.
+
+### Quick Usage Example
+
+To generate some events that will show up in Sentry, you can log messages or capture errors:
```python
from sentry_sdk import capture_message
-capture_message("Hello World") # Will create an event in Sentry.
+capture_message("Hello Sentry!") # You'll see this in your Sentry dashboard.
-raise ValueError() # Will also create an event in Sentry.
+raise ValueError("Oops, something went wrong!") # This will create an error event in Sentry.
```

+### Rolling Your Own Integration?
-## Migrating
+If you want to create a new integration or improve an existing one, we’d welcome your contributions! Please read our [contributing guide](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-python/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) before starting.
-### Migrating From `1.x` to `2.x`
+## Migrating Between Versions?
-If you're on SDK version 1.x, we highly recommend updating to the 2.x major. To make the process easier we've prepared a [migration guide](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/migration/1.x-to-2.x) with the most common changes as well as a [detailed changelog](MIGRATION_GUIDE.md).
+### From `1.x` to `2.x`
-### Migrating From `raven-python`
+If you're using the older `1.x` version of the SDK, now's the time to upgrade to `2.x`. It includes significant upgrades and new features. Check our [migration guide](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/migration/1.x-to-2.x) for assistance.
-The old `raven-python` client has entered maintenance mode and was moved [here](https://github.com/getsentry/raven-python).
+### From `raven-python`
-If you're using `raven-python`, we recommend you to migrate to this new SDK. You can find the benefits of migrating and how to do it in our [migration guide](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/migration/raven-to-sentry-sdk/).
+Using the legacy `raven-python` client? It's now in maintenance mode, and we recommend migrating to the new SDK for an improved experience. Get all the details in our [migration guide](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/migration/raven-to-sentry-sdk/).
