 //! Constructs found in markdown.
+//!
+//! There are several *things* found when parsing markdown, such as, say, a
+//! thematic break.
+//! These things are called constructs here.
+//! Sometimes, there are several constructs that result in an equivalent thing.
+//! For example, [code (fenced)][code_fenced] and
+//! [code (indented)][code_indented] are considered different constructs
+//!
+//! <!-- To do: can these rest things be made into constructs? -->
+//!
+//! Content types also have a *rest* thing: after all character escapes and
+//! character references are parsed, there’s something left.
+//! This remainder is, currently, not called a constructs.
+//!
+//! The following constructs are found in markdown:
+//!
+//! *   attention (strong, emphasis) (text)
+//! *   [autolink][autolink]
+//! *   [blank line][blank_line]
+//! *   block quote
+//! *   [character escape][character_escape]
+//! *   [character reference][character_reference]
+//! *   [code (fenced)][code_fenced]
+//! *   [code (indented)][code_indented]
+//! *   code (text)
+//! *   content
+//! *   definition
+//! *   hard break escape
+//! *   [heading (atx)][heading_atx]
+//! *   heading (setext)
+//! *   [html (flow)][html_flow]
+//! *   [html (text)][html_text]
+//! *   label end
+//! *   label start (image)
+//! *   label start (link)
+//! *   list
+//! *   paragraph
+//! *   [thematic break][thematic_break]
+//!
+//! Each construct maintained here is explained with a BNF diagram.
+//! For example, the docs for [character escape][character_escape] contain:
+//!
+//! ```bnf
+//! character_escape ::= '\\' ascii_punctuation
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Such diagrams are considered to be *non-normative*.
+//! That is to say, they form illustrative, imperfect, but useful, examples.
+//! The code, in Rust, is considered to be normative.
+//!
+//! They also contain references to character as defined by [char][], so for
+//! example `ascii_punctuation` refers to
+//! [`char::is_ascii_punctuation`][char::is_ascii_punctuation].
