Crunchyroll is streaming the series and describes the plot as follows:
It was the Taisho period in Japan. Tanjiro, a kind-hearted boy who sells coal for a living, finds his family massacred by a demon. Worse still, his sister Nezuko, the only survivor, was turned into a demon.
Although devastated by this grim reality, Tanjiro is determined to become a “demon slayer” so he can transform into a demon. His sister turned back into a human and destroyed the demon that massacred his family.
