-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/tomaka/glutin
-cd glutin
-cargo run --example window

 ## Usage
 
-Glutin is an OpenGL context creation library and doesn't directly provide OpenGL bindings for you.
+Winit is an OpenGL window creation and management library. It can create windows and lets you
+handle events (for example: the window being resized, a key being pressed, a mouse mouvement, etc.)
+produced by window.
 
-```toml
-[dependencies]
-gl = "*"
-libc = "*"
-```
+Winit is designed to be a low-level brick in a hierarchy of libraries. Consequently, in order to
+show something on the window you need to use the platform-specific getters provided by winit, or
+another library.
 
 ```rust
-extern crate gl;
-extern crate glutin;
-extern crate libc;
+extern crate winit;
 
 fn main() {
-    let window = glutin::Window::new().unwrap();
-
-    unsafe { window.make_current() };
-
-    unsafe {
-        gl::load_with(|symbol| window.get_proc_address(symbol) as *const _);
-
-        gl::ClearColor(0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0);
-    }
+    let window = winit::Window::new().unwrap();
 
     for event in window.wait_events() {
-        unsafe { gl::Clear(gl::COLOR_BUFFER_BIT) };
-        window.swap_buffers();
-
         match event {
-            glutin::Event::Closed => break,
+            winit::Event::Closed => break,
             _ => ()
         }
     }
 }
 ```

-Note that glutin aims at being a low-level brick in your rendering infrastructure. You are encouraged to write another layer of abstraction between glutin and your application.

-## Platform-specific notes
-
-### Android
-
- - To compile the examples for android, initialize the submodules, go to `deps/apk-builder/apk-builder` and run `cargo build`, then go back to `glutin` and call `ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/sdk NDK_HOME=/path/to/ndk NDK_STANDALONE=/path/to/standalone cargo test --no-run --target=arm-linux-androideabi`
-
-### X11
-
- - The plan is that glutin tries to dynamically link-to and use wayland if possible. If it doesn't work, it will try xlib instead. If it doesn't work, it will try libcaca. This is work-in-progress.
