+## Lists
+
+### Default lists
+
+There are currently two default lists, which you can initiate like this:
+
+```javascript
+await places.lists.initDefaults();
+```
+
+This will create the lists if they don't exist yet (meaning the user hasn't yet
+used an app that integrates this module).
+
+The default lists are:
+
+| Path | Default Name | Default Color |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `_lists/to-go` | Want to go | #2e9e4f (green) |
+| `_lists/to-do` | To do | #2a7fff (blue) |
+
+### Custom lists
+
+```javascript
 // Create a list
-await places.lists.create('favorites', 'My Favorites');
+await places.lists.create('hiking', 'Hiking', '#74d3ba');
 
+// Delete a list
+await places.lists.delete('hiking');
+```
+
+### List membership
+
+```javascript
 // Add a place to a list (requires list ID, place ID, and place geohash)
-await places.lists.addPlace('favorites', 'place-id-123', 'u33dc0');
+await places.lists.addPlace('to-go', 'place-id-123', 'u33dc0');
+
+// Remove from list
+await places.lists.removePlace('to-go', 'place-id-123');
+```
+
+### Reading lists
+
+```javascript
+// Get all lists
+await places.lists.getAll();
+
+// Get specific list
+await places.lists.get('to-do');
 ```
