+//! # The Rust core allocation and collections library
+//!
+//! This library provides smart pointers and collections for managing
+//! heap-allocated values.
+//!
+//! This library, like libcore, normally doesn’t need to be used directly
+//! since its contents are re-exported in the [`std` crate](../std/index.html).
+//! Crates that use the `#![no_std]` attribute however will typically
+//! not depend on `std`, so they’d use this crate instead.
+//!
+//! ## Boxed values
+//!
+//! The [`Box`] type is a smart pointer type. There can only be one owner of a
+//! [`Box`], and the owner can decide to mutate the contents, which live on the
+//! heap.
+//!
+//! This type can be sent among threads efficiently as the size of a `Box` value
+//! is the same as that of a pointer. Tree-like data structures are often built
+//! with boxes because each node often has only one owner, the parent.
+//!
+//! ## Reference counted pointers
+//!
+//! The [`Rc`] type is a non-threadsafe reference-counted pointer type intended
+//! for sharing memory within a thread. An [`Rc`] pointer wraps a type, `T`, and
+//! only allows access to `&T`, a shared reference.
+//!
+//! This type is useful when inherited mutability (such as using [`Box`]) is too
+//! constraining for an application, and is often paired with the [`Cell`] or
+//! [`RefCell`] types in order to allow mutation.
+//!
+//! ## Atomically reference counted pointers
+//!
+//! The [`Arc`] type is the threadsafe equivalent of the [`Rc`] type. It
+//! provides all the same functionality of [`Rc`], except it requires that the
+//! contained type `T` is shareable. Additionally, [`Arc<T>`][`Arc`] is itself
+//! sendable while [`Rc<T>`][`Rc`] is not.
+//!
+//! This type allows for shared access to the contained data, and is often
+//! paired with synchronization primitives such as mutexes to allow mutation of
+//! shared resources.
+//!
+//! ## Collections
+//!
+//! Implementations of the most common general purpose data structures are
+//! defined in this library. They are re-exported through the
+//! [standard collections library](../std/collections/index.html).
+//!
+//! ## Heap interfaces
+//!
+//! The [`alloc`](alloc/index.html) module defines the low-level interface to the
+//! default global allocator. It is not compatible with the libc allocator API.
+//!
+//! [`Arc`]: sync
+//! [`Box`]: boxed
+//! [`Cell`]: core::cell
+//! [`Rc`]: rc
+//! [`RefCell`]: core::cell
