+# Overview 
+
+ro-crate-rs is a rust library that aims to provide a robust, portable 
+and scalable solution to dealing [RO-Crates](https://www.researchobject.org/ro-crate/1.1/) 
+within the varying software environments that are present across a 
+Synthetic Biology Laboratory stack (it's current focus). It enforces minimal 
+RO-Crate structure adherence through it's defined data types, but equally allows 
+the crate to be as expansive as needed.
+
+# Basic structure 
+
+RO-Crates are based upon the JSON-LD (Javascript Object Notation for Linked Data Model),
+using keys that have been defined in schema.org vocabularies, or other custom ontologies. In this library, 
+RO-Crates are deserialised directly into a `RoCrate` structure using `serde`.
+The base Ro-Crate is formed out of a `struct RoCrate` containg a `@context` and a `@graph`. 
+
+The `@context` object contains a value refering to either a:  
+- Reference Context
+- Embedded Context
+- Extended Context
+
+The `@graph` object is a `vector` containing other RO-Crate entity structures that are one of the following:
+- Metadata Descriptor 
+- Root Data Entity
+- Data Entity 
+- Contextual Entity
+
+Within the `@graph`, there can only be one Metadata Descriptor and Root Data Entity, whilst 
+there can be zero to many Data Entities or Contextual Entities 
+
+Each entity structure consists of an `@id` (or `id` for struct field) and a `@type`
+(or `type_` for struct field). For Metadata Descriptor and Root Data Entity, they 
+consist of other fields that have been determined to be a requirement by the 
+RO-Crate specification.
+
+Each entity structure also has a field called `dynamic_entity`, which allows the 
+population of any form of JSON-LD compatible value within the statically typed
+requirements of rust. These, by default, are instantiated as `None`.
+
