 This crate exposes a user friendly (at least I hope), Rust api for [libnotify](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libnotify). Made using [bindgen](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen).
 
-## Structure
-Project is split into two modules:
-- functions
-- notifications
-
-Which resembles libnotify structure. Every function is named similarly to its libnotify counterpart and it does the same things.
-
-There are some helper structs and enums to make it more approachable to rust folks.
+It comes with basic libnotify calls bindings and higher level abstraction over it.

 I will be happy to fix any bugs that you may find! Just create a new issue, or better yet a pull request.

-I'm thinking about a small wrapper around other code, which would initialize libnotify by itself, cleanup after itself, etc. Maybe someday…
