+//! Non-physical true random number generator based on timing jitter.
+//!
+//! Note that this RNG is not suited for use cases where cryptographic security is
+//! required (also see this [discussion]).
+//!
+//! This is a true random number generator, as opposed to pseudo-random
+//! generators. Random numbers generated by `JitterRng` can be seen as fresh
+//! entropy. A consequence is that it is orders of magnitude slower than `OsRng`
+//! and PRNGs (about 10<sup>3</sup>..10<sup>6</sup> slower).
+//!
+//! There are very few situations where using this RNG is appropriate. Only very
+//! few applications require true entropy. A normal PRNG can be statistically
+//! indistinguishable, and a cryptographic PRNG should also be as impossible to
+//! predict.
+//!
+//! `JitterRng` can be used without the standard library, but not conveniently,
+//! you must provide a high-precision timer and carefully have to follow the
+//! instructions of [`JitterRng::new_with_timer`].
+//!
+//! This implementation is based on [Jitterentropy] version 2.1.0.
+//!
+//! Note: There is no accurate timer available on WASM platforms, to help
+//! prevent fingerprinting or timing side-channel attacks. Therefore
+//! [`JitterRng::new()`] is not available on WASM. It is also unavailable
+//! with disabled `std` feature.
