+## `ffigen`
+
+This package uses [ffigen](https://pub.dev/packages/ffigen) to call Foundation
+methods, rather than using the standard Flutter plugin structure. To add new
+functionality to the FFI interface, update `tool/ffigen.dart`, then run:
+
+```bash
+dart run tool/ffigen.dart
+```
+
+### Configuration philosophy
+
+This package intentionally uses very strict filtering rules to include only the
+necessary methods and functions. This is partially to keep the package small,
+but mostly to avoid unnecessarily generating anything that requires native code
+helpers, which would require setting up a native compilation step.
