+//! # Omniqueue
+//!
+//! Omniqueue provides a high-level interface for sending and receiving the following over a range
+//! of queue backends:
+//!
+//!   * Raw byte arrays in the way most compatible with the queue backend
+//!
+//!   * JSON encoded byte arrays for types that implement [`serde::Deserialize`] and
+//!     [`serde::Serialize`]
+//!
+//!   * Arbitrary types for which an encoder and/or decoder has been defined
+//!
+//! ## Cargo Features
+//!
+//! Each backend is enabled with its associated cargo feature. All backends are enabled by default.
+//! As of present it supports:
+//!
+//!   * In-memory queues
+//!
+//!   * RabbitMQ
+//!
+//!   * Redis streams
+//!
+//!   * SQS
+//!
+//! ## How to Use Omniqueue
+//!
+//!   Each queue backend has a unique configuration type. One of these configurations is taken
+//!   when constructing the [`queue::QueueBuilder`].
+//!
+//!   To create a simple producer and/or consumer:
+//!
+//!   ```compile_fail
+//!   let cfg = SqsConfig {
+//!       queue_dsn: "http://localhost:9234/queue/queue_name".to_owned(),
+//!       override_endpoint: true,
+//!   };
+//!      
+//!   // Either both producer and consumer
+//!   let (p, mut c) = SqsQueueBackend::builder(cfg.clone()).build_pair().await?;
+//!
+//!   // Or one half
+//!   let p = SqsQueueBackend::builder(cfg.clone()).build_producer().await?;
+//!   let mut c = SqsQueueBackend::builder(cfg).build_consumer().await?;
+//!
+//!   (p, c)
+//!   ```
+//!
+//!   Sending and receiving information from this queue is simple:
+//!
+//!   ```compile_fail
+//!   p.send_serde_json(&ExampleType::default()).await?;
+//!
+//!   let delivery = c.receive().await?;
+//!   let payload = delivery.payload_serde_json::<ExampleType>().await?;
+//!   delivery.ack().await?;
+//!   ```
+//!
+//! ## `DynProducer`s and `DynConsumer`s
+//!
+//! Dynamic-dispatch can be used easily for when you're not sure which backend to use at
+//! compile-time.
+//!
+//! Making a `DynProducer` or `DynConsumer` is as simple as adding one line to the builder:
+//!
+//! ```compile_fail
+//! let (p, mut c) = RabbitMqBackend::builder(cfg)
+//!     .make_dynamic()
+//!     .build_pair()
+//!     .await?;
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ## Encoders/Decoders
+//!
+//! The [`encoding::CustomEncoder`]s and [`decoding::CustomDecoder`]s given to the builder upon
+//! producer/consumer creation will be used to convert from/to the queue's native representation
+//! into/from a given type. This helps enforce a separation of responsibilities where only the
+//! application setting up a concrete queue instance should ever have to think about the internal
+//! data-representation of items within the queue while abstract uses of queues should be able to
+//! work with simple Rust types.
+//!
+//! Any function or closure with the right signature may be used as an encoder or decoder.
+//!
+//! ```compile_fail
+//! #[derive(Debug, PartialEq)]
+//! struct ExampleType {
+//!     field: u8,
+//! }
+//!
+//! let (p, mut c) = RabbitMqBackend::builder(cfg)
+//!     .with_encoder(|et: &ExampleType| -> Result<Vec<u8>, QueueError> {
+//!         Ok(vec![et.field])
+//!     })
+//!     .with_decoder(|v: &Vec<u8>| -> Result<ExampleType, QueueError> {
+//!         Ok(ExampleType {
+//!             field: *v.first().unwrap_or(&0),
+//!         })
+//!     })
+//! ```
