+//! # Wasmer Runtime C API
+//!
+//! Wasmer is a standalone JIT WebAssembly runtime, aiming to be fully
+//! compatible with Emscripten, Rust and Go. [Learn
+//! more](https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer).
+//!
+//! This crate exposes a C and C++ API for the Wasmer runtime.
+//!
+//! # Usage
+//!
+//! The C and C++ header files can be found in the source tree of this
+//! crate, respectively [`wasmer.h`][wasmer_h] and
+//! [`wasmer.hh`][wasmer_hh]. They are automatically generated, and always
+//! up-to-date in this repository.
+//!
+//! Here is a simple example to use the C API:
+//!
+//! ```c
+//! #include <stdio.h>
+//! #include "wasmer.h"
+//! #include <assert.h>
+//! #include <stdint.h>
+//!
+//! int main()
+//! {
+//!     // Read the Wasm file bytes.
+//!     FILE *file = fopen("sum.wasm", "r");
+//!     fseek(file, 0, SEEK_END);
+//!     long len = ftell(file);
+//!     uint8_t *bytes = malloc(len);
+//!     fseek(file, 0, SEEK_SET);
+//!     fread(bytes, 1, len, file);
+//!     fclose(file);
+//!
+//!     // Prepare the imports.
+//!     wasmer_import_t imports[] = {};
+//!
+//!     // Instantiate!
+//!     wasmer_instance_t *instance = NULL;
+//!     wasmer_result_t instantiation_result = wasmer_instantiate(&instance, bytes, len, imports, 0);
+//!
+//!     assert(instantiation_result == WASMER_OK);
+//!
+//!     // Let's call a function.
+//!     // Start by preparing the arguments.
+//!
+//!     // Value of argument #1 is `7i32`.
+//!     wasmer_value_t argument_one;
+//!     argument_one.tag = WASM_I32;
+//!     argument_one.value.I32 = 7;
+//!
+//!     // Value of argument #2 is `8i32`.
+//!     wasmer_value_t argument_two;
+//!     argument_two.tag = WASM_I32;
+//!     argument_two.value.I32 = 8;
+//!
+//!     // Prepare the arguments.
+//!     wasmer_value_t arguments[] = {argument_one, argument_two};
+//!
+//!     // Prepare the return value.
+//!     wasmer_value_t result_one;
+//!     wasmer_value_t results[] = {result_one};
+//!
+//!     // Call the `sum` function with the prepared arguments and the return value.
+//!     wasmer_result_t call_result = wasmer_instance_call(instance, "sum", arguments, 2, results, 1);
+//!
+//!     // Let's display the result.
+//!     printf("Call result:  %d\n", call_result);
+//!     printf("Result: %d\n", results[0].value.I32);
+//!
+//!     // `sum(7, 8) == 15`.
+//!     assert(results[0].value.I32 == 15);
+//!     assert(call_result == WASMER_OK);
+//!
+//!     wasmer_instance_destroy(instance);
+//!
+//!     return 0;
+//! }
+//! ```
