+# 0.1.0
+
+This is the first minor, unstable release of BinaryCodable. The public API for this library is subject to change unexpectedly until 1.0.0 is reached, at which point breaking changes will be mitigated and communicated ahead of time. This initial release includes the following features:
+
+- Encode from Swift types to `Data`.
+- Decode from `Data` to Swift types.
+- Efficiently encode/decode large blocks of arbitrary data.
+- Lazy decoding (read bytes from a source only as they're needed).
+- Encode and decode fixed-width integer types.
+- Encode and decode strings with or without terminators.
+- Cap decoding containers to a maximum length.

+# Comparison to Swift Codable
+
+Binary Codable is similar to Swift [Codable](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/archives_and_serialization) in that both define an encodable and decodable type that concrete types are expected to implement and both provide encoders and decoders.
+
+Binary Codable is distinct from Swift Codable in the assumptions it makes about how external representations are structured. Swift Codable assumes that external representations have a pre-determined structure (JSON, PropertyList, etc...). Binary Codable, on the other hand, views external representations purely as binary data. This distinction is reflected in the difference of the APIs provided by the BinaryEncoder and BinaryCoder types.
+
+## Interface comparison
+
+Swift Codable and Binary Codable's related types are outlined below.
