+`iced_core` holds basic reusable types of the public API. For instance, basic data types like `Point`, `Rectangle`, `Length`, etc.
+
+This crate is meant to be a starting point for an Iced runtime.

+`iced_native` takes [`iced_core`] and builds a native runtime on top of it, featuring:
+- A custom layout engine, greatly inspired by [`druid`]
+- Event handling for all the built-in widgets
+- A renderer-agnostic API
+
+To achieve this, it introduces a bunch of reusable interfaces:
+- A `Widget` trait, which is used to implement new widgets: from layout requirements to event and drawing logic.
+- A bunch of `Renderer` traits, meant to keep the crate renderer-agnostic.
+- A `Windowed` trait, leveraging [`raw-window-handle`], which can be implemented by graphical renderers that target _windows_. Window-based shells (like [`iced_winit`]) can use this trait to stay renderer-agnostic.

+`iced_web` takes [`iced_core`] and builds a WebAssembly runtime on top. It achieves this by introducing a `Widget` trait that can be used to produce VDOM nodes.
+
+The crate is currently a __very experimental__, simple abstraction layer over [`dodrio`].

+
+`iced_wgpu` is a [`wgpu`] renderer for [`iced_native`]. For now, it is the default renderer of Iced in native platforms.
+
+[`wgpu`] supports most modern graphics backends: Vulkan, Metal, DX11, and DX12 (OpenGL and WebGL are still WIP). Additionally, it will support the incoming [WebGPU API].
+
+Currently, `iced_wgpu` supports the following primitives:
+- Text, which is rendered using [`wgpu_glyph`]. No shaping at all.
+- Quads or rectangles, with rounded borders and a solid background color.
+- Images, lazily loaded from the filesystem.
+- Clip areas, useful to implement scrollables or hide overflowing content.

+[`wgpu_glyph`]: https://github.com/hecrj/wgpu_glyph
+
+## Current limitations
+
+The current implementation is quite naive, it uses:
+
+- A different pipeline/shader for each primitive
+- A very simplistic layer model: every `Clip` primitive will generate new layers
+- _Many_ render passes instead of preparing everything upfront
+- A glyph cache that is trimmed incorrectly when there are multiple layers (a [`glyph_brush`] limitation)
+
+Some of these issues are already being worked on! If you want to help, [get in touch!]

+`iced_winit` offers some convenient abstractions on top of [`iced_native`] to quickstart development when using [`winit`].
+
+It exposes a renderer-agnostic `Application` trait that can be implemented and then run with a simple call. The use of this trait is optional. A `conversion` module is provided for users that decide to implement a custom event loop.
