-// Make the window transparent only if the platform supports it.
-if (process.platform !== 'win32' || app.isAeroGlassEnabled()) {

+
+### `systemPreferences.subscribeNotification(event, callback)` _OS X_
+
+* `event` String
+* `callback` Function
+
+Subscribes to native notifications of OS X, `callback` will be called when the
+corresponding `event` happens. The `id` of the subscriber is returned, which can
+be used to unsubscribe the `event`.
+
+Under the hood this API subscribes to `NSDistributedNotificationCenter`,
+possible values of `event` are:
+
+* `AppleInterfaceThemeChangedNotification`
+* `AppleAquaColorVariantChanged`
+* `AppleColorPreferencesChangedNotification`
+* `AppleShowScrollBarsSettingChanged`
+
+### `systemPreferences.unsubscribeNotification(id)` _OS X_
+
+* `id` Integer
+
+Removes the subscriber with `id`.
+
+### `systemPreferences.getUserDefault(key, type)` _OS X_
+
+* `key` String
+* `type` String - Can be `string`, `boolean`, `integer`, `float`, `double`,
+  `url`.
+
+Get the value of `key` in system preferences.
+
+This API reads from `NSUserDefaults` on OS X, some popular `key` and `type`s
+are:
+
+* `AppleInterfaceStyle: string`
+* `AppleAquaColorVariant: integer`
+* `AppleHighlightColor: string`
+* `AppleShowScrollBars: string`
+
+### `systemPreferences.isAeroGlassEnabled()` _Windows_
+
+This method returns `true` if [DWM composition][dwm-composition] (Aero Glass) is
+enabled, and `false` otherwise.
+
+An example of using it to determine if you should create a transparent window or
+not (transparent windows won't work correctly when DWM composition is disabled):
+
+```javascript
+let browserOptions = {width: 1000, height: 800};
+
+// Make the window transparent only if the platform supports it.
+if (process.platform !== 'win32' || app.isAeroGlassEnabled()) {
+  browserOptions.transparent = true;
+  browserOptions.frame = false;
+}
+
+// Create the window.
+let win = new BrowserWindow(browserOptions);
+
+// Navigate.
+if (browserOptions.transparent) {
+  win.loadURL('file://' + __dirname + '/index.html');
+} else {
+  // No transparency, so we load a fallback that uses basic styles.
+  win.loadURL('file://' + __dirname + '/fallback.html');
+}
+```
