+//! API to safely and fallibly initialize pinned `struct`s using in-place constructors.
+//!
+//! It also allows in-place initialization of big `struct`s that would otherwise produce a stack
+//! overflow.
+//!
+//! Most `struct`s from the [`sync`] module need to be pinned, because they contain self-referential
+//! `struct`s from C. [Pinning][pinning] is Rust's way of ensuring data does not move.
+//!
+//! # Overview
+//!
+//! To initialize a `struct` with an in-place constructor you will need two things:
+//! - an in-place constructor,
+//! - a memory location that can hold your `struct`.
+//!
+//! To get an in-place constructor there are generally two options:
+//! - a custom function/macro returning an in-place constructor provided by someone else,
+//! - using the unsafe function [`pin_init_from_closure()`] to manually create an initializer.
+//!
+//! Aside from pinned initialization, this API also supports in-place construction without pinning,
+//! the macros/types/functions are generally named like the pinned variants without the `pin`
+//! prefix.
