-## Overview 📖
+The `databind` package provides a (de)serialization framework that understands most native Python types as well as
+dataclasses, as well as an implementation for serialize to/from JSON-like nested data structures.
+
+Databind is intended mostly for flexible and easy to use configuration loading. It does __not__ try achieve high-performance; you should look towards e.g. [mashumaro](https://pypi.org/project/mashumaro/) for this usecase.
 
-The `databind.core` package provides the core framework for databind. It is then used by `databind.json` to provide
-comprehensive serializatio support between Python and JSON-like data structure. The serialization can easily be
-extended to YAML or TOML by combining it with respective libraries (e.g. `pyaaml` and `tomli`).
