What Hacker News says

Most of the time I find that the lib's github's README.md contains the introduction and overview that I want to understand how the library works. Unfortunately it's not in the docs themselves, but I hear that the Rust team is working on improving that. See for instance the "image" crate docs: https://docs.rs/image/0.13.0/image/ A simple API doc, I don't know where to start. But then if I go to the repo I find a nice intro with some example code: https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/image/blob/master/README...
