+for Haskell.  Its features include:
+
+@itemize
+@item Pure Haskell implementation with small dependency footprint and
+emphasis on strict compliance with the YAML 1.2 specification.
+
+@item Direct decoding to native Haskell types via (aeson-inspired)
+typeclass-based API (see @code{Data.YAML}).
+
+@item Support for constructing custom YAML node graph
+representation (including support for cyclic YAML data structures).
+
+@item Support for the standard (untyped) @emph{Failsafe}, (strict)
+@emph{JSON}, and (flexible) @emph{Core} ``schemas'' providing implicit
+typing rules as defined in the YAML 1.2 specification (including support
+for user-defined custom schemas).
+
+@item Event-based API resembling LibYAML's Event-based API (see
+@code{Data.YAML.Event}).
+
+@item Low-level API access to lexical token-based scanner (see
+@code{Data.YAML.Token}).
