+_Fast, SIMD-accelerated CRC32 (IEEE) checksum computation_
+
+## Usage
+
+### Simple usage
+
+For simple use-cases, you can call the `hash` convenience function to
+directly compute the CRC32 checksum for a given byte slice:
+
+```rust
+let checksum = crc32fast::hash(b"foo bar baz");
+```
+
+### Advanced usage
+
+For use-cases that require more flexibility or performance, for example when
+processing large amounts of data, you can create and manipulate a `Hasher`:
+
+```rust
+use crc32fast::Hasher;
+
+let mut hasher = Hasher::new();
+hasher.update(b"foo bar baz");
+let checksum = hasher.finalize();
+```
+
+## Performance
+
+This crate contains multiple CRC32 implementations:
+
+- A fast baseline implementation which processes up to 16 bytes per iteration
+- An optimized implementation for modern `x86` using `sse` and `pclmulqdq` instructions
+- An optimized implementation for `aarch64` using `crc32` instructions
+
+Calling the `Hasher::new` constructor at runtime will perform a feature detection to select the most
+optimal implementation for the current CPU feature set.

+
+## Memory Safety
+
+Due to the use of SIMD intrinsics for the optimized implementations, this crate contains some amount of `unsafe` code.
+
+In order to ensure memory safety, the relevant code has been fuzz tested using [afl.rs](https://github.com/rust-fuzz/afl.rs) with millions of iterations in both `debug` and `release` build settings. You can inspect the test setup in the `fuzz` sub-directory, which also has instructions on how to run the tests yourself.
+
+On top of that, every commit is tested using an address sanitizer in CI to catch any out of bounds memory accesses.
+
+Even though neither fuzzing nor sanitization has revealed any safety bugs yet, please don't hesitate to file an issue if you run into any crashes or other unexpected behaviour.
+
+## Available feature flags
+
+### `std` (default: enabled)
+
+This library supports being built without the Rust `std` library, which is useful for low-level use-cases such as embedded where no operating system is available. To build the crate in a `no_std` context, disable the default `std` feature.
+
+Note: Because runtime CPU feature detection requires OS support, the specialized SIMD implementations will be unavailable when the `std` feature is disabled.
+
+### `nightly` (default: disabled)
+
+This feature flag enables unstable features that are only available on the `nightly` channel. Keep in mind that when enabling this feature flag, you
+might experience breaking changes when updating compiler versions.
+
+Currently, enabling this feature flag will make the optimized `aarch64` implementation available.
