+//! # Fluent, fluently
+//! A simple library providing IO for [Project Fluent](https://projectfluent.org/).
+//!
+//! Sample usage:
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! let loc = fluent_fluently::Localiser::try_load("./locale".to_string(), "en-US".to_string()).unwrap();
+//! let msg = loc.get_message("hello-world", loc.available_languages.get("it"));
+//! println!("{}", msg);
+//! ```
+//!
+//! The [FluentMessage] you obtained this way will automatically fall back on `en-US` if no locale
+//! of the requested type was found. Though, if you want, you `bundles` is a [HashMap], so you can
+//! certainly check whether a language is available manually if you so wish.
