 This is the high-level, Rust idiomatic wrapper crate for PKCS #11.
 
+The items in this crate only expose idiomatic and safe Rust types and
+functions to interface with the PKCS11 API. All the PKCS11 items might
+not be implemented but everything that is implemented is safe.
+
+## Example
+
+The following example initializes an empty token and generates a new RSA key.
+
+```rust
+# fn main() -> testresult::TestResult {
+use cryptoki::object::Attribute;
+use cryptoki::context::{CInitializeArgs, Pkcs11};
+use cryptoki::session::UserType;
+use cryptoki::types::AuthPin;
+use cryptoki::mechanism::Mechanism;
+
+let pkcs11 = Pkcs11::new(
+        std::env::var("PKCS11_SOFTHSM2_MODULE")
+            .unwrap_or_else(|_| "/usr/local/lib/softhsm/libsofthsm2.so".to_string()),
+    )?;
+
+pkcs11.initialize(CInitializeArgs::OsThreads)?;
+
+let slot = pkcs11.get_slots_with_token()?[0];
+
+let so_pin = AuthPin::new("abcdef".into());
+pkcs11.init_token(slot, &so_pin, "Test Token")?;
+
+let user_pin = AuthPin::new("fedcba".into());
+
+{
+  let session = pkcs11.open_rw_session(slot)?;
+  session.login(UserType::So, Some(&so_pin))?;
+  session.init_pin(&user_pin)?;
+}
+
+let session = pkcs11.open_rw_session(slot)?;
+session.login(UserType::User, Some(&user_pin))?;
+
+let pub_key_template = vec![
+    Attribute::Token(true),
+    Attribute::Private(false),
+    Attribute::PublicExponent(vec![0x01, 0x00, 0x01]),
+    Attribute::ModulusBits(1024.into()),
+];
+
+let priv_key_template = vec![Attribute::Token(true)];
+
+let (public, private) = session.generate_key_pair(&Mechanism::RsaPkcsKeyPairGen, &pub_key_template, &priv_key_template)?;
+# Ok(()) }
+```
+
+## Conformance Notes
+
+Throughout this crate, many functions and other items include additional
+"**Conformance**" notes. These notes may provide guarantees about behavior or
+additional, contextual information. In all cases, such items pertain
+to information from the PKCS#11 standard and are contingent on the provider
+being accessed through this crate conforming to that standard. That is, this
+crate is permitted to *assume* these guarantees, and is does not necessarily
+check for or enforce them itself.
