+//! Parsing and inspecting Rust literal tokens.
+//!
+//! This library offers functionality to parse Rust literals, i.e. tokens in the
+//! Rust programming language that represent fixed values. The grammar for
+//! those is defined [here][ref].
+//!
+//! This kind of functionality already exists in the crate `syn`. However, as
+//! you oftentimes don't need (nor want) the full power of `syn`, `litrs` was
+//! built. This crate also offers a bit more flexibility compared to `syn`
+//! (only regarding literals, of course).
+//!
+//! ---
+//!
+//! The main types of this library are [`Literal`], representing any kind of
+//! literal, and `*Lit`, like [`StringLit`] or [`FloatLit`], representing a
+//! specific kind of literal.
+//!
+//! There are different ways to obtain such a literal type:
+//!
+//! - **`parse`**: parses a `&str` or `String` and returns `Result<_,
+//! ParseError>`. For example: [`Literal::parse`] and
+//! [`IntegerLit::parse`].
+//!
+//! - **`From<proc_macro::Literal> for Literal`**: turns a `Literal` value from
+//! the `proc_macro` crate into a `Literal` from this crate.
+//!
+//! - **`TryFrom<proc_macro::Literal> for *Lit`**: tries to turn a
+//! `proc_macro::Literal` into a specific literal type of this crate. If
+//! the input is a literal of a different kind, `Err(InvalidToken)` is
+//! returned.
+//!
+//! - **`TryFrom<proc_macro::TokenTree>`**: attempts to turn a token tree into a
+//! literal type of this crate. An error is returned if the token tree is
+//! not a literal, or if you are trying to turn it into a specific kind of
+//! literal and the token tree is a different kind of literal.
+//!
+//! All of the `From` and `TryFrom` conversions also work for reference to
+//! `proc_macro` types. Additionally, if the crate feature `proc-macro2` is
+//! enabled (which it is by default), all these `From` and `TryFrom` impls also
+//! exist for the corresponding `proc_macro2` types.
+//!
+//! **Note**: `true` and `false` are `Ident`s when passed to your proc macro.
+//! The `TryFrom<TokenTree>` impls check for those two special idents and
+//! return a `BoolLit` appropriately. For that reason, there is also no
+//! `TryFrom<proc_macro::Literal>` impl for `BoolLit`. The `proc_macro::Literal`
+//! simply cannot represent bool literals.
+//!
+//!
+//! # Examples
+//!
+//! In a proc-macro:
+//!
+//! ```ignore
+//! use std::convert::TryFrom;
+//! use proc_macro::TokenStream;
+//! use litrs::FloatLit;
+//!
+//! #[proc_macro]
+//! pub fn foo(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
+//! let mut input = input.into_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>();
+//! if input.len() != 1 {
+//! // Please do proper error handling in your real code!
+//! panic!("expected exactly one token as input");
+//! }
+//! let token = input.remove(0);
+//!
+//! match FloatLit::try_from(token) {
+//! Ok(float_lit) => { /* do something */ }
+//! Err(e) => return e.to_compile_error(),
+//! }
+//!
+//! // Dummy output
+//! TokenStream::new()
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Parsing from string:
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use litrs::{FloatLit, Literal};
+//!
+//! // Parse a specific kind of literal (float in this case):
+//! let float_lit = FloatLit::parse("3.14f32");
+//! assert!(float_lit.is_ok());
+//! assert_eq!(float_lit.unwrap().type_suffix(), Some(litrs::FloatType::F32));
+//! assert!(FloatLit::parse("'c'").is_err());
+//!
+//! // Parse any kind of literal. After parsing, you can inspect the literal
+//! // and decide what to do in each case.
+//! let lit = Literal::parse("0xff80").expect("failed to parse literal");
+//! match lit {
+//! Literal::Integer(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! Literal::Float(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! Literal::Bool(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! Literal::Char(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! Literal::String(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! Literal::Byte(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! Literal::ByteString(lit) => { /* ... */ }
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//!
+//!
+//! # Crate features
+//!
+//! - `proc-macro2` (**default**): adds the dependency `proc_macro2`, a bunch of
+//! `From` and `TryFrom` impls, and [`InvalidToken::to_compile_error2`].
+//!
