# How to Use
After parsing a screenplay file into text, ScreenplayJS can parse a string and return a ScriptJSON object.
import { FountainParser } from "screenplay-js";
// Read file as a string
const screenplay_string = yourFileReaderFunction(screenplay_file)
// Parse screenplay text
const script_json = FountainParser.parse(screenplay_string);
