+webdriver library
+=================
+
+The [webdriver crate] is a library implementation of the wire protocol
+for the [W3C WebDriver standard] written in Rust. WebDriver is a remote
+control interface that enables introspection and control of user agents.
+It provides a platform- and language-neutral wire protocol as a way
+for out-of-process programs to remotely instruct the behaviour of web
+browsers.
+
+The webdriver library provides the formal types, error codes, type and
+bounds checks, and JSON marshaling conventions for correctly parsing
+and emitting the WebDriver protocol. It also provides an HTTP server
+where endpoints are mapped to the different WebDriver commands.
+
+**As of right now, this is an implementation for the server side of the
+WebDriver API in Rust, not the client side.**
