 ## View
 
-`SoAView` is a macro generated templated class allowing access to columns defined in one or multiple `SoALayout`s or
-`SoAViews`. The view can be generated in a constant and non-constant flavors. All view flavors provide with the same
-interface where scalar elements are accessed with an `operator()`: `soa.scalar()` while columns (Eigen or not) are
-accessed via a array of structure (AoS) -like syntax: `soa[index].x()`. The "struct" object returned by `operator[]`
-can be used as a shortcut: `auto si = soa[index]; si.z() = si.x() + zi.y();`

-A view can be instanciated by being passed the corresponding layout.

 Layout classes also define a `View` and `ConstView` subclass that provide access to each column and
 scalar of the layout. In addition to those fully parametrized templates, two others levels of parametrization are
 provided: `ViewTemplate`, `ViewViewTemplateFreeParams` and respectively `ConstViewTemplate`,
 `ConstViewTemplateFreeParams`. The parametrization of those templates is explained in the [Template
 parameters section](#template-parameters).
 
-It is also possible to build a generic `View` or `ConstView` passing from the [Metarecords sublass](#metarecords-subclass).
