 LiveKit client makes it simple to build declarative UI that reacts to state changes. It notifies changes in two ways
 
-* `ChangeNotifier` - generic notification of changes
-* `RoomDelegate` and `ParticipantDelegate` - notification of specific events.
+* `ChangeNotifier` - generic notification of changes. This is useful when you are building reactive UI and only care about changes that may impact rendering.
+* `EventsListener<Event>` - listener pattern to listen to specific events (see [events.dart](https://github.com/livekit/client-sdk-flutter/blob/main/lib/src/events.dart)).
 
 This example will show you how to use both to react to room events.
