+Going Further
+=============
+
+
+Why pydyf?
+-------------
+
+pydyf has been created to replace Cairo PDF generation in WeasyPrint_.
+
+Indeed, there are some bugs in WeasyPrint caused by Cairo_ and Cairo has some
+difficulties to make releases.
+Also there are features which will be easier to implement while having more
+control on the PDF generation.
+
+So we created pydyf.
+
+.. _WeasyPrint: https://www.courtbouillon.org/weasyprint
+.. _Cairo: https://www.cairographics.org/
+
+Why Python?
+-----------
+
+Python is a really good language to design a small, OS-agnostic parser. As it
+is object-oriented, it gives the possibility to follow the specification with
+high-level classes and a small amount of very simple code.
+
+And of course, WeasyPrint is written in Python too, giving an obvious reason
+for this choice.
+
+Speed is not pydyf’s main goal. Code simplicity, maintainability and 
+flexibility are more important goals for this library, as they give the 
+ability to stay really close to the specification and to fix bugs easily.
