+# Releases (in the C Programming Language)
+
+[Wuffs the Library](/doc/wuffs-the-library.md) ships as a "single file C
+library", also known as a "[header file
+library](https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/master/docs/stb_howto.txt)".
+
+To use that library in your C/C++ project, you just need to copy one file from
+this directory, or otherwise integrate that one file into your build system.
+Typically, pick the latest stable version (but not the unsupported snapshot),
+with a filename like `wuffs-vMAJOR.MINOR.c` for version MAJOR.MINOR.
+
+To use that single file as a "foo.c"-like implementation, instead of a
+"foo.h"-like header, `#define WUFFS_IMPLEMENTATION` before `#include`'ing or
+compiling it.
+
+
+# Latest Stable Version
+
+**Version 0.2 (December 2019)** is the latest stable version. Stable means that
+its API won't change any further, but being a "version 0.x" means that:
+
+- It will not have long term support.
+- Newer versions make no promises about compatibility.
+
+
+# Mirror
+
+Wuffs' canonical repository is located at
+[github.com/google/wuffs](https://github.com/google/wuffs). If you just want to
+*use* Wuffs-the-library in its C form (instead of *modifying* its Wuffs form or
+otherwise needing Wuffs-the-language tools), a mirror of just the `release/c`
+directory is located at
+[github.com/google/wuffs-mirror-release-c](https://github.com/google/wuffs-mirror-release-c).
+By excluding everything else, the mirror is much smaller than and changes much
+less frequently than the canonical repository.
