+
+This crate is a Rust port of Google's high-performance [SwissTable] hash
+map, adapted to make it a drop-in replacement for Rust's standard `HashMap`
+and `HashSet` types.
+
+The original C++ version of SwissTable can be found [here], and this
+[CppCon talk] gives an overview of how the algorithm works.
+
+Since Rust 1.36, this is now the `HashMap` implementation for the Rust standard
+library. However you may still want to use this crate instead since it works
+in environments without `std`, such as embedded systems and kernels.

+## [Change log](CHANGELOG.md)
+
+## Features
+
+- Drop-in replacement for the standard library `HashMap` and `HashSet` types.
+- Uses [AHash](https://github.com/tkaitchuck/aHash) as the default hasher, which is much faster than SipHash.
+ However, AHash does *not provide the same level of HashDoS resistance* as SipHash, so if that is important to you, you might want to consider using a different hasher.
+- Around 2x faster than the previous standard library `HashMap`.
+- Lower memory usage: only 1 byte of overhead per entry instead of 8.
+- Compatible with `#[no_std]` (but requires a global allocator with the `alloc` crate).
+- Empty hash maps do not allocate any memory.
+- SIMD lookups to scan multiple hash entries in parallel.
+
+## Performance
+
+Compared to the previous implementation of `std::collections::HashMap` (Rust 1.35).
+

+
+## Usage
+
+Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+hashbrown = "0.12"
+```
+
+Then:
+
+```rust
+use hashbrown::HashMap;
+
+let mut map = HashMap::new();
+map.insert(1, "one");
+```
+## Flags
+This crate has the following Cargo features:
+
+- `nightly`: Enables nightly-only features including: `#[may_dangle]`.
+- `serde`: Enables serde serialization support.
+- `rayon`: Enables rayon parallel iterator support.
+- `raw`: Enables access to the experimental and unsafe `RawTable` API.
+- `inline-more`: Adds inline hints to most functions, improving run-time performance at the cost
+ of compilation time. (enabled by default)
+- `bumpalo`: Provides a `BumpWrapper` type which allows `bumpalo` to be used for memory allocation.
+- `ahash`: Compiles with ahash as default hasher. (enabled by default)
+- `ahash-compile-time-rng`: Activates the `compile-time-rng` feature of ahash. For targets with no random number generator
+this pre-generates seeds at compile time and embeds them as constants. See [aHash's documentation](https://github.com/tkaitchuck/aHash#flags) (disabled by default)
