+//! A library for build scripts to compile custom C code
+//!
+//! This library is intended to be used as a `build-dependencies` entry in
+//! `Cargo.toml`:
+//!
+//! ```toml
+//! [build-dependencies]
+//! cc = "1.0"
+//! ```
+//!
+//! The purpose of this crate is to provide the utility functions necessary to
+//! compile C code into a static archive which is then linked into a Rust crate.
+//! Configuration is available through the `Build` struct.
+//!
+//! This crate will automatically detect situations such as cross compilation or
+//! other environment variables set by Cargo and will build code appropriately.
+//!
+//! The crate is not limited to C code, it can accept any source code that can
+//! be passed to a C or C++ compiler. As such, assembly files with extensions
+//! `.s` (gcc/clang) and `.asm` (MSVC) can also be compiled.
+//!
+//! [`Build`]: struct.Build.html
+//!
+//! # Parallelism
+//!
+//! To parallelize computation, enable the `parallel` feature for the crate.
+//!
+//! ```toml
+//! [build-dependencies]
+//! cc = { version = "1.0", features = ["parallel"] }
+//! ```
+//! To specify the max number of concurrent compilation jobs, set the `NUM_JOBS`
+//! environment variable to the desired amount.
+//!
+//! Cargo will also set this environment variable when executed with the `-jN` flag.
+//!
+//! If `NUM_JOBS` is not set, the `RAYON_NUM_THREADS` environment variable can
+//! also specify the build paralellism.
+//!
+//! # Examples
+//!
+//! Use the `Build` struct to compile `src/foo.c`:
+//!
+//! ```no_run
+//! extern crate cc;
+//!
+//! fn main() {
+//!     cc::Build::new()
+//!         .file("src/foo.c")
+//!         .define("FOO", Some("bar"))
+//!         .include("src")
+//!         .compile("foo");
+//! }
