 This example shows how to use the `VersioningExtension` with collaborative editing using `yjs` (v13). Snapshots are stored in localStorage using Yjs state updates.
 
-**Try it out:** Edit the document, then click the "Version History" button to open the sidebar. From there you can save snapshots, preview older versions, rename them, and restore them.
+The sidebar opens on a document with a few versions already in its history, so you can preview them, rename them, and restore them right away. The editor is read-only while the sidebar is open: close it to edit the document, then reopen it with the "History" button and press "Save version" to add a version of your own.
