+    (description
+     "@code{cassava} is a library for parsing and encoding
+@url{https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180, RFC 4180} compliant @url{https://
+en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values, comma-separated values (CSV)}
+data, which is a textual line-oriented format commonly used for exchanging
+tabular data.
+
+@code{cassava}'s API includes support for:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+
+@item
+Index-based record-conversion
+@item
+Name-based record-conversion
+@item
+Typeclass directed conversion of fields and records
+@item
+Built-in field-conversion instances for standard types
+@item
+Customizable record-conversion instance derivation via GHC generics
+@item
+Low-level @url{https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring), bytestring}
+builders (see @url{https://hackage.haskell.org/package/cassava-0.5.2.0/docs/
+Data-Csv-Builder.html, Data.Csv.Builder})
+@item
+Incremental decoding and encoding API (see @url{https://hackage.haskell.org/
+package/cassava-0.5.2.0/docs/Data-Csv-Incremental.html, Data.Csv.Incremental})
+@item
+Streaming API for constant-space decoding (see @url{https://hackage.haskell.org/
+package/cassava-0.5.2.0/docs/Data-Csv-Streaming.html, Data.Csv.Streaming})
+@end itemize
+
+Moreover, this library is designed to be easy to use; for instance, here's a
+very simple example of encoding CSV data:
+
+@verbatim
+>>> Data.Csv.encode [(\"John\",27),(\"Jane\",28)]
+\"John,27\r\nJane,28\r\n\"
+@end verbatim
