+## The `Deref` trait
+
+The `Deref<Target = U>` trait allows a type to implicitly implement all the methods
+of the type `U`. When attempting to resolve a method call, the compiler will search
+the top-level type for the implementation of the called method. If no such method is
+found, `.deref()` is called and the compiler continues to search for the method
+implementation in the returned type `U`.
