 Overview
 ==
-As the popularity of the library [minifb](https://crates.io/crates/minifb) shows, it is useful to put a 2D buffer/image
-on a window in a platform-independent way. Minifb's approach to doing window management itself, however, is problematic
+
+Enables software rendering via drawing an image straight to a window.
+
+Softbuffer integrates with the [`raw-window-handle`](https://crates.io/crates/raw-window-handle) crate
+to allow writing pixels to a window in a cross-platform way while using the very high quality dedicated window management
+libraries that are available in the Rust ecosystem.

+[minifb](https://crates.io/crates/minifb) also allows putting a 2D buffer/image on a window in a platform-independent way. Minifb's approach to doing window management itself, however, is problematic
 code duplication. We already have very high quality libraries for this in the Rust ecosystem
 (such as [winit](https://crates.io/crates/winit)), and minifb's implementation of window management is not ideal. For
 example, it occasionally segfaults on some platforms and is missing key features such as the ability to set a window
 icon. While it would be possible to add these features to minifb, it makes more sense to instead use the standard
 window handling systems.

 What about [pixels](https://crates.io/crates/pixels)? Pixels accomplishes a very similar goal to Softbuffer,
 however there are two key differences. Pixels provides some capacity for GPU-accelerated post-processing of what is
 displayed, while Softbuffer does not. Due to not having this post-processing, Softbuffer does not rely on the GPU or
 hardware accelerated graphics stack in any way, and is thus more portable to installations that do not have access to
 hardware acceleration (e.g. VMs, older computers, computers with misconfigured drivers). Softbuffer should be used over
 pixels when its GPU-accelerated post-processing effects are not needed.
