+One of Haskell's strengths is immutable data structures. These
+structures make it easier to reason about code, simplify concurrency and
+parallelism, and in some cases can improve performance by allowing
+sharing. However, there are still classes of problems where mutable
+data structures can both be more convenient, and provide a performance
+boost. This library is meant to provide such structures in a
+performant, well tested way. It also provides a simple abstraction over
+such data structures via typeclasses.
