+# node_module
+
+Ruby is a pretty high level language, so isn't perfectly suited to
+things such as:
+
+1. Systems programming
+2. Being web-scale
+
+It's also difficult to represent basic concepts in Ruby, as the sheer
+amount of dynamism and expressivity baked into the language compels
+the programmer to only think of code in terms of objects and
+orientation, and Dijkstra. This is way too high level.
+
+Thankfully, there is a burgeoning language on the scene that empowers
+the programmer to really think about the nuts and bolts of their
+implementation. Your code no longer explains to you what you want to
+happen, but how it should do it.
+
+Naturally, issuing commands to a computer -- typically in the form of
+an assembly language, compiled C code, or JavaScript -- allows the
+program to scale effortlessly under extreme loads, and allows you to reason
+about what exactly your hardware is doing.
+
+To that end, this library lets you drop down to JavaScript at the method level,
+so parts of your class can be executed more efficiently. This makes Ruby *perfectly*
+suited to things such as:
+
+1. Systems programming
+2. Being web-scale
+
+## How to use
+
+```ruby
+require 'node_module'
+
+class AbstractConcepts
+
+  def existentialism
+    self.name = "me"
+  end
+
+  def solipsism
+    (constants - [self.class]).map(&:remove_const)
+  end
+
+  node_module
+
+  def pythagoras_theorm
+    a, b, c = [3, 4, 5]
+    a**2 + b**2 == c**2
+  end
+end
+```
+
+Any method you define after `node_module` will be converted to JavaScript before being
+executed.
+
+This is a ridiculous proof of concept, so there are a few issues...
+
+## Caveats
+
+- Only the body of a method is used, so there is no access to the name
+  or arguments passed.
+
+- References to the rest of the class will fail, because it all falls
+  out of scope when converted.
+
+- Node isn't actually being used yet, so calls to `puts` will blow up
+  as V8 doesn't have the `console` object.
+
+- Probably lots of other stuff I don't know about, because I haven't
+  felt insane enough to check everything out
+
+## What Ruby code will work?
+
+Check [Opal](http://opalrb.org) for that. It's what does all the hard work.
+
+## WHY!??
+
+> **I'll often drop down to node.js if I really need to be close to the metal**
