+//! Helpers for serializing the types in this library to various byte formats.
+//!
+//! # Naming convention
+//!
+//! Sub-modules should be named `{name}_format`, for each binary format implemented.
+//!
+//! Functions in each module use the following naming convention:
+//!
+//! > `(write|read|view)_(array|slice)`
+//!
+//! 1. Operation:
+//!
+//!    - `write` to serialize a structure to bytes
+//!    - `read` to deserialize bytes to a new Rust structure (copying data)
+//!    - `view` to deserialize bytes to a structured view (sharing data)
+//!
+//! 2. Type suffix, for the byte representation:
+//!
+//!    - `array` for working with constant-sized arrays (`[u8; ?]`)
+//!    - `slice` for working with variable-sized slices (`[u8]`)
