+Ghub is a library that provides basic support for using the Github API
+from Emacs packages.  It abstracts access to API resources using only
+a handful of functions that are not resource-specific.
+
+Ghub handles the creation, storage and use of access tokens using a
+setup wizard to make it easier for users to get started and to reduce
+the support burden imposed on package maintainers.  It also comes with
+a comprehensive manual to address the cases when things don't just
+work as expected or in case you don't want to use the wizard.
+
+Ghub is intentionally limited to only provide these two essential
+features — basic request functions and guided setup — to avoid being
+too opinionated, which would hinder wide adoption.  It is assumed that
+wide adoption would make life easier for users and maintainers alike,
+because then all packages that talk to the Github API could be
+configured the same way.
