+### Alternative query methods
+
+The standard query method `query()` returns a `ParseResponse` that contains the result or the error. As an alternative, you can also use `Future<List<T>> find()` for receiving options.
+This method returns an `Future` that either resolves in an error (equivalent of the error in the `ParseResponse`) or an `List` containing the queried objects. One difference, you should be aware of, is the fact, that `Future<List<T>> find()` will return an empty list instead of the 'No results' error you receive in case no object matches you query.
+
+Choosing between `query()` and `find()` comes down to personal preference. Both methods can be used for querying a `ParseQuery`, just the output method differs.
+
+Similar to `find()` the `QueryBuilder` also has a function called `Future<T>? first()`. Just like `find()` `first()` is just a convenience method that makes querying the first object satisfying the query simpler. `first()` returns an `Future`, that resoles in an error or the first object matching the query. In case no object satisfies the query, the result will be `null`.

 ## Complex queries
 You can create complex queries to really put your database to the test:
