+Scala/pickling is an automatic serialization framework for Scala. It's fast,
+boilerplate-free, and allows users to easily swap in/out different
+serialization formats (such as binary, or JSON), or even to provide your own
+custom serialization format.
+
+**Basic usage:**
+~~~scala
+import scala.pickling._
+import json._
+
+val pckl = List(1, 2, 3, 4).pickle
+val lst = pckl.unpickle[List[Int]]
+~~~
