 For a step-by-step guide on using the client see [Getting Started with Apache Kafka and Python](https://developer.confluent.io/get-started/python/).
 
+Aditional examples can be found in the [examples](examples) directory or the [confluentinc/examples](https://github.com/confluentinc/examples/tree/master/clients/cloud/python) github repo, which include demonstration of:
+- Exactly once data processing using the transactional API.
+- Integration with asyncio.
+- (De)serializing Protobuf, JSON, and Avro data with Confluent Schema Registry integration.
+- [Confluent Cloud](https://www.confluent.io/confluent-cloud/) configuration.
