+     "This package provides a wrapper around
+@url{https://github.com/go-yaml/yaml, go-yaml} designed to enable a better way
+of handling YAML when marshaling to and from structs.
+
+It first converts YAML to JSON using go-yaml and then uses @code{json.Marshal}
+and @code{json.Unmarshal} to convert to or from the struct.  This means that
+it effectively reuses the JSON struct tags as well as the custom JSON methods
+@code{MarshalJSON} and @code{UnmarshalJSON} unlike go-yaml.")
