-## A note on features
+<!-- cargo-sync-readme start -->
 
-This crate has features! Here’s a comprehensive list of what you can enable:
+# Spline interpolation made easy.
 
-  - **Serialization / deserialization.**
+This crate exposes splines for which each sections can be interpolated independently of each
-    + This feature implements both the `Serialize` and `Deserialize` traits from `serde`.
+other – i.e. it’s possible to interpolate with a linear interpolator on one section and then
-    + Enable with the `"serialization"` feature.
+switch to a cubic Hermite interpolator for the next section.
-  - **[cgmath](https://crates.io/crates/cgmath) implementors**
+
-    + Adds some usefull implementations of `Interpolate` for some cgmath types.
+Most of the crate consists of three types:
-    + Enable with the `"impl-cgmath"` feature.
+
-  - **Standard library / no standard library.**
+- [`Key`], which represents the control points by which the spline must pass.
-    + It’s possible to compile against the standard library or go on your own without it.
+- [`Interpolation`], the type of possible interpolation for each segment.
-    + Compiling with the standard library is enabled by default.
+- [`Spline`], a spline from which you can *sample* points by interpolation.
-    + Use `default-features = []` in your `Cargo.toml` to disable.
+
-    + Enable explicitly with the `"std"` feature.
+When adding control points, you add new sections. Two control points define a section – i.e.
+it’s not possible to define a spline without at least two control points. Every time you add a
+new control point, a new section is created. Each section is assigned an interpolation mode that
+is picked from its lower control point.
+
+# Quickly create splines
+
+```
+use splines::{Interpolation, Key, Spline};
+
+let start = Key::new(0., 0., Interpolation::Linear);
+let end = Key::new(1., 10., Interpolation::default());
+let spline = Spline::from_vec(vec![start, end]);
+```
+
+You will notice that we used `Interpolation::Linear` for the first key. The first key `start`’s
+interpolation will be used for the whole segment defined by those two keys. The `end`’s
+interpolation won’t be used. You can in theory use any [`Interpolation`] you want for the last
+key. We use the default one because we don’t care.
+
+# Interpolate values
+
+The whole purpose of splines is to interpolate discrete values to yield continuous ones. This is
+usually done with the `Spline::sample` method. This method expects the interpolation parameter
+(often, this will be the time of your simulation) as argument and will yield an interpolated
+value.
+
+If you try to sample in out-of-bounds interpolation parameter, you’ll get no value.
+
+```
+# use splines::{Interpolation, Key, Spline};
+# let start = Key::new(0., 0., Interpolation::Linear);
+# let end = Key::new(1., 10., Interpolation::Linear);
+# let spline = Spline::from_vec(vec![start, end]);
+assert_eq!(spline.sample(0.), Some(0.));
+assert_eq!(spline.clamped_sample(1.), Some(10.));
+assert_eq!(spline.sample(1.1), None);
+```
+
+It’s possible that you want to get a value even if you’re out-of-bounds. This is especially
+important for simulations / animations. Feel free to use the `Spline::clamped_interpolation` for
+that purpose.
+
+```
+# use splines::{Interpolation, Key, Spline};
+# let start = Key::new(0., 0., Interpolation::Linear);
+# let end = Key::new(1., 10., Interpolation::Linear);
+# let spline = Spline::from_vec(vec![start, end]);
+assert_eq!(spline.clamped_sample(-0.9), Some(0.)); // clamped to the first key
+assert_eq!(spline.clamped_sample(1.1), Some(10.)); // clamped to the last key
+```
+
+# Features and customization
+
+This crate was written with features baked in and hidden behind feature-gates. The idea is that
+the default configuration (i.e. you just add `"splines = …"` to your `Cargo.toml`) will always
+give you the minimal, core and raw concepts of what splines, keys / knots and interpolation
+modes are. However, you might want more. Instead of letting other people do the extra work to
+add implementations for very famous and useful traits – and do it in less efficient way, because
+they wouldn’t have access to the internals of this crate, it’s possible to enable features in an
+ad hoc way.
+
+This mechanism is not final and this is currently an experiment to see how people like it or
+not. It’s especially important to see how it copes with the documentation.
+
+So here’s a list of currently supported features and how to enable them:
+
+- **Serialization / deserialization.**
++ This feature implements both the `Serialize` and `Deserialize` traits from `serde` for all
+types exported by this crate.
++ Enable with the `"serialization"` feature.
+- **[cgmath](https://crates.io/crates/cgmath) implementors.**
++ Adds some useful implementations of `Interpolate` for some cgmath types.
++ Enable with the `"impl-cgmath"` feature.
+- **[nalgebra](https://crates.io/crates/nalgebra) implementors.**
++ Adds some useful implementations of `Interpolate` for some nalgebra types.
++ Enable with the `"impl-nalgebra"` feature.
+- **Standard library / no standard library.**
++ It’s possible to compile against the standard library or go on your own without it.
++ Compiling with the standard library is enabled by default.
++ Use `default-features = []` in your `Cargo.toml` to disable.
++ Enable explicitly with the `"std"` feature.

+//! The [`Interpolate`] trait and associated symbols.

+//! The [`Interpolate`] trait is the central concept of the crate. It enables a spline to be

+//! type must implementing several traits:
+//!
+//!   - [`One`], giving a neutral element for the multiplication monoid.
+//!   - [`Additive`], making the type additive (i.e. one can add or subtract with it).
+//!   - [`Linear`], unlocking linear combinations, required for interpolating.
