+## BCC examples ported to PythonBPF
+
+This folder contains examples of BCC tutorial examples that have been ported to use **PythonBPF**.
+
+## Requirements
+- install `pythonbpf` and `pylibbpf` using pip.
+- You will also need `matplotlib` for vfsreadlat.py example.
+- You will also need `rich` for vfsreadlat_rich.py example.
+- You will also need `plotly` and `dash` for vfsreadlat_plotly.py example.
+
+## Usage
+- You'll need root privileges to run these examples. If you are using a virtualenv, use the following command to run the scripts:
+  ```bash
+  sudo <path_to_virtualenv>/bin/python3 <script_name>.py
+  ```
+- For vfsreadlat_plotly.py, run the following command to start the Dash server:
+  ```bash
+  sudo <path_to_virtualenv>/bin/python3 vfsreadlat_plotly/bpf_program.py
+  ```
+  Then open your web browser and navigate to the given URL.
