 Example Playbook
 ----------------
 
+First, install this role via Galaxy by typing `sudo ansible-galaxy install zyphlar.unifi_controller_rhel`
+
+Then create and run an Ansible playbook like this:
+
     - hosts: your_unifi_controllers
-      sudo: yes
+      become: true
       roles:
         - zyphlar.unifi_controller_rhel
 
+Or, if you want to override some variables:

+    - hosts: your_unifi_controllers

+        - role: zyphlar.unifi_controller_rhel
