Quick start guide?

I like the idea of this project. Does it do the whole candle, light, and other tools equivalent, from WiX?

I've used MakeMSI in the past also, I'm assuming the goals of your project is to to the equivalent to WiX/MakeMSI?

This crate is intended as a lower-level library for manipulating MSI files -- the idea is that it's the sort of library one could use to build a WiX-like or MakeMSI-like tool, but it is not itself such a tool. I created it in the hopes of using it to add MSI support to cargo-bundle (which is such a tool), and I started that but never got it working yet.

Agreed that the documentation for this crate is lacking and should be improved.
