 ## Schema Configurator
 
-The `SchemaConfigurator` is an interface that allows users to bridge the gap between Kompendium serialization and custom
-serialization strategies that the serializer they are using for their API. For example, if you are using KotlinX
-serialization in order to convert kotlin fields from camel case to snake case, you could leverage
-the `KotlinXSchemaConfigurator` in order to instruct Kompendium on how to serialize values properly.
+Out of the box, Kompendium supports KotlinX serialization... however, in order to allow for users of other
+serialization libraries to use Kompendium, we have provided a `SchemaConfigurator` interface that allows you to
+configure how Kompendium will generate schema definitions.
 
-```kotlin
-private fun Application.mainModule() {
-  install(ContentNegotiation) {
-    json(Json {
-      serializersModule = KompendiumSerializersModule.module
-      encodeDefaults = true
-      explicitNulls = false
-    })
-  }
-  install(NotarizedApplication()) {
-    spec = baseSpec
-    // Adds support for @Transient and @SerialName
-    // If you are not using them this is not required.
-    schemaConfigurator = KotlinXSchemaConfigurator()
-  }
-}
-```
+For an example of the `SchemaConfigurator` in action, please see the `KotlinxSchemaConfigurator`.  This will give you
+a good idea of the additional functionality it can add based on your own serialization needs.
