+# @material-ui/styled-engine-goober
+
+This package is a wrapper around the `goober` package.
+It is created to be used as alias for the `@material-ui/styled-engine` package, for the developers who would like to use `goober` as a styled engine instead of `@emotion/styled`.
+
+## Installation
+
+The installation of the dependency in your package is slightly different from the usual.
+You need to alias the default `emotion` implementation to the `goober` one.
+Depending on the bundler you are using, you made add it like this:
+
+### webpack
+
+```js
+module.exports = {
+  //...
+  resolve: {
+    alias: {
+      '@material-ui/styled-engine': '@material-ui/styled-engine-goober',
+    },
+  },
+};
+```
