+# `rcombinators`
+
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/dermesser/rcombinators.svg?branch=master))](https://travis-ci.org/dermesser/rcombinators)
+
+`rcombinators` is a Rust version of the [`pcombinators`](https://github.com/dermesser/pcombinators)
+library, providing parser combinators in Rust. As opposed to some other parser libraries it works
+without much magic syntax for users; however this also means a bit more boilerplate and occasionally
+less performance due to the "pedestrian" way of doing things.
+
+Compared to `pcombinators` we still achieve up to 100x more throughput as well as type safety,
+making writing parsers less error-prone.
+
+An example of a working parser can be found in `examples/json/`, which is a working yet simplistic
+JSON parser (it doesn't work with escaped characters in strings, for example), demonstrating how to
+combine the parsers provided by rcombinators.
