+# Rust bindings to *nix APIs
+
+[![Cirrus Build Status](https://api.cirrus-ci.com/github/nix-rust/nix.svg)](https://cirrus-ci.com/github/nix-rust/nix)
+[![crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/nix.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/nix)
+
+[Documentation (Releases)](https://docs.rs/nix/)
+
+Nix seeks to provide friendly bindings to various *nix platform APIs (Linux, Darwin,
+...). The goal is to not provide a 100% unified interface, but to unify
+what can be while still providing platform specific APIs.
+
+For many system APIs, Nix provides a safe alternative to the unsafe APIs
+exposed by the [libc crate](https://github.com/rust-lang/libc).  This is done by
+wrapping the libc functionality with types/abstractions that enforce legal/safe
+usage.
+
+
+As an example of what Nix provides, examine the differences between what is
+exposed by libc and nix for the
+[gethostname](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/gethostname.2.html) system
+call:
+
+```rust,ignore
+// libc api (unsafe, requires handling return code/errno)
+pub unsafe extern fn gethostname(name: *mut c_char, len: size_t) -> c_int;
+
+// nix api (returns a nix::Result<OsString>)
+pub fn gethostname() -> Result<OsString>;
+```
+
+## Supported Platforms
+
+nix target support consists of two tiers. While nix attempts to support all
+platforms supported by [libc](https://github.com/rust-lang/libc), only some
+platforms are actively supported due to either technical or manpower
+limitations. Support for platforms is split into three tiers:
+
+  * Tier 1 - Builds and tests for this target are run in CI. Failures of either
+             block the inclusion of new code.
+  * Tier 2 - Builds for this target are run in CI. Failures during the build
+             blocks the inclusion of new code. Tests may be run, but failures
+             in tests don't block the inclusion of new code.
+  * Tier 3 - Builds for this target are run in CI. Failures during the build
+             *do not* block the inclusion of new code. Testing may be run, but
+             failures in tests don't block the inclusion of new code.
+
+The following targets are supported by `nix`:
+
+Tier 1:
+  * aarch64-apple-darwin
+  * aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi
+  * armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf
+  * i686-unknown-freebsd
+  * i686-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * i686-unknown-linux-musl
+  * mips-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * mips64-unknown-linux-gnuabi64
+  * mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabi64
+  * mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * x86_64-unknown-freebsd
+  * x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
+
+Tier 2:
+  * aarch64-apple-ios
+  * aarch64-linux-android
+  * arm-linux-androideabi
+  * arm-unknown-linux-musleabi
+  * armv7-linux-androideabi
+  * i686-linux-android
+  * powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * s390x-unknown-linux-gnu
+  * x86_64-apple-ios
+  * x86_64-linux-android
+  * x86_64-apple-darwin
+  * x86_64-unknown-illumos
+  * x86_64-unknown-netbsd
+
+Tier 3:
+  * armv7-unknown-linux-uclibceabihf
+  * x86_64-fuchsia
+  * x86_64-unknown-dragonfly
+  * x86_64-unknown-haiku
+  * x86_64-unknown-linux-gnux32
+  * x86_64-unknown-openbsd
+  * x86_64-unknown-redox
+
+## Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)
+
+nix is supported on Rust 1.56.1 and higher.  Its MSRV will not be
+changed in the future without bumping the major or minor version.
