Hi, for newb like me, it will be great if there's more document on how to use your lib. for example, how to use it on testnet?

We use BIP44 which is based on BIP32. It dedicates following derivation path:

m / purpose' / coin_type' / account' / change / address_index

You can compare the derived addresses and keys with https://iancoleman.io/bip39/.
