+/// This module allows you to create a function in Cranelift IR in a straightforward way, hiding
+/// all the complexity of its internal representation.
+///
+/// The module is parametrized by one type which is the representation of variables in your
+/// origin language. It offers a way to conveniently append instruction to your program flow.
+/// You are responsible to split your instruction flow into extended blocks (declared with
+/// `create_block`) whose properties are:
+///
+/// - branch and jump instructions can only point at the top of extended blocks;
+/// - the last instruction of each block is a terminator instruction which has no natural successor,
+///   and those instructions can only appear at the end of extended blocks.
+///
+/// The parameters of Cranelift IR instructions are Cranelift IR values, which can only be created
+/// as results of other Cranelift IR instructions. To be able to create variables redefined multiple
+/// times in your program, use the `def_var` and `use_var` command, that will maintain the
+/// correspondence between your variables and Cranelift IR SSA values.
+///
+/// The first block for which you call `switch_to_block` will be assumed to be the beginning of
+/// the function.
+///
+/// At creation, a `FunctionBuilder` instance borrows an already allocated `Function` which it
+/// modifies with the information stored in the mutable borrowed
+/// [`FunctionBuilderContext`](struct.FunctionBuilderContext.html). The function passed in
+/// argument should be newly created with
+/// [`Function::with_name_signature()`](Function::with_name_signature), whereas the
+/// `FunctionBuilderContext` can be kept as is between two function translations.
+///
+/// # Errors
+///
+/// The functions below will panic in debug mode whenever you try to modify the Cranelift IR
+/// function in a way that violate the coherence of the code. For instance: switching to a new
+/// `Block` when you haven't filled the current one with a terminator instruction, inserting a
+/// return instruction with arguments that don't match the function's signature.
