+# GVariant for Java
+
+This library provides a [GVariant][] parser in pure Java.
+
+
+## Overview
+
+The two foundational classes are `Value` and `Decoder`.
+
+`Value` is a sum type (sealed interface) that represents a
+[GVariant][] value. Its subtypes represent the different types of
+values that [GVariant][] supports.
+
+Instances of `Decoder` read a given concrete subtype of `Value` from a
+[ByteBuffer][]. The class also contains factory methods to create
+those instances.
+
+The various subclasses of `Decoder` together implement the [GVariant
+serialization][] specification.
+
+
+## Example
+
+To parse a [GVariant][] value of type `"a(si)"`, which is an array of
+pairs of [String][] and `int`, you can use the following code:
+
+ record ExampleRecord(Value.Str s, Value.Int32 i) {}
+
+ var decoder =
+ Decoder.ofArray(
+ Decoder.ofStructure(
+ ExampleRecord.class,
+ Decoder.ofStr(StandardCharsets.UTF_8),
+ Decoder.ofInt32().withByteOrder(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN)));
+
+ byte[] bytes = ...;
+ Value.Array<Value.Structure<ExampleRecord>> example = decoder.decode(bytes);
+
