+;;; validate.el --- Schema validation for Emacs-lisp  -*- lexical-binding: t; 
-*-
+
+;; Copyright (C) 2016  Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+
+;; Author: Artur Malabarba <em...@endlessparentheses.com>
+;; Keywords: lisp
+;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "24.1") (cl-lib "0.5"))
+;; Version: 0.2
+
+;;; Commentary:
+;;
+;; This library offers two functions that perform schema validation.
+;; Use this is your Elisp packages to provide very informative error
+;; messages when your users accidentally misconfigure a variable.
+;; For instance, if everything is fine, these do the same thing:
+;;
+;;   1.  (validate-variable 'cider-known-endpoints)
+;;   2.  cider-known-endpoints
+;;
+;; However, if the user has misconfigured this variable, option
+;; 1. will immediately give them an informative error message, while
+;; option 2. won't say anything and will lead to confusing errors down
+;; the line.
+;;
+;; The format and language of the schemas is the same one used in the
+;; `:type' property of a `defcustom'.
+;;
+;;     See: (info "(elisp) Customization Types")
+;;
+;; Both functions throw a `user-error' if the value in question
+;; doesn't match the schema, and return the value itself if it
+;; matches.  The function `validate-variable' verifies whether the value of a
+;; custom variable matches its custom-type, while `validate-value' checks an
+;; arbitrary value against an arbitrary schema.
+;;
+;; Missing features: `:inline', `plist', `coding-system', `color',
+;; `hook', `restricted-sexp'.
