-Elegant and battle-tested validation library for type-safe input data for TypeScript and
-Flow. The API is inspired by Elm’s JSON decoders, hence the name.
+Elegant and battle-tested validation library for type-safe input data for
+[TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) and [Flow](https://flow.org/).
 
-See https://nvie.com/posts/introducing-decoders/ for an introduction.
+## Motivation
 
-## Why?
+Data entering your application from the outside world should not be trusted without
+validation and often is of the `any` type, effectively disabling your type checker around
+input values. It's an industry good practice to validate your expectations right at your
+program's boundaries. This has two benefits: (1) your inputs are getting validated, and
+(2) you can now statically know for sure the shape of the incoming data. **Decoders help
+solve both of these problems at once.**
 
-If you're using Flow or TypeScript to statically typecheck your JavaScript, you'll know
-that any data coming from outside your program’s boundaries is essentially untyped and
-unsafe. "Decoders" can help to validate and enforce the correct shape of that data.
-
-For example, imagine your app expects a list of points in an incoming HTTP request:
-
-```javascript
-{
-  points: [
-    { x: 1, y: 2 },
-    { x: 3, y: 4 },
-  ],
-}
-```
-
-In order to decode this, you'll have to tell Flow about the expected structure, and use
-the decoders to validate at runtime that the free-form data will be in the expected shape.
-
-```javascript
-type Point = { x: number, y: number };
-
-type Payload = {
-    points: Array<Point>,
-};
-```
-
-Here's a decoder that will work for this type:
-
-```javascript
-import { array, guard, number, object } from 'decoders';
-
-const point = object({
-    x: number,
-    y: number,
-});
-
-const payload = object({
-    points: array(point),
-});
-
-const payloadGuard = guard(payload);
-```
-
-And then, you can use it to decode values:
-
-```javascript
->>> payloadGuard(1)      // throws!
->>> payloadGuard('foo')  // throws!
->>> payloadGuard({       // OK!
-...     points: [
-...         { x: 1, y: 2 },
-...         { x: 3, y: 4 },
-...     ],
-... })
-```
-
-## API
-
-The decoders package consists of a few building blocks:
-
--   [Primitives](#primitives)
--   [Compositions](#compositions)
--   [Building custom decoders](#building-custom-decoders)
-

-Accepts only finite numbers (integer or float values). This means that values like `NaN`,
-or positive and negative `Infinity` are not considered valid numbers.

-
-Accepts any value and returns it unchanged. Useful for situation in which you don't know
-or expect a specific type. Of course, the downside is that you won't know the type of the
-value statically and you'll have to further refine it yourself.
-
-(Unknown is called `mixed` in Flow.)

-
-### Compositions
-
-Composite decoders are "higher order" decoders that can build new decoders from existing
-decoders that can already decode a "subtype". Examples are: if you already have a decoder
-for a `Point` (= `Decoder<Point>`), then you can use `array()` to automatically build a
-decoder for arrays of points: `array(pointDecoder)`, which will be of type
-`Decoder<Array<Point>>`.
-
-<a name="optional" href="#optional">#</a>
-<b>optional</b><i>&lt;T&gt;</i>(<i>Decoder&lt;T&gt;</i>): <i>Decoder&lt;T | void&gt;</i>
-[&lt;&gt;](https://github.com/nvie/decoders/blob/main/src/core/optional.js 'Source')
-
-Accepts only the literal value `undefined`, or whatever the given decoder accepts.
-
-<!-- prettier-ignore-start -->
-```javascript
-const verify = guard(optional(string));
-
-// 👍
-verify('hello') === 'hello';
-verify(undefined) === undefined;
-
-// 👎
-verify(null);  // throws
-verify(0);     // throws
-verify(42);    // throws
-```
-<!-- prettier-ignore-end -->
-
-A typical case where `optional` is useful is in decoding objects with optional fields:
+import { array, iso8601, number, object, optional, string } from 'decoders';
+
+//
+// Incoming data at runtime
+//
+const externalData = {
+    id: 123,
+    name: 'Alison Roberts',
+    createdAt: '1994-01-11T12:26:37.024Z',
+    tags: ['foo', 'bar'],
+};
 
-```javascript
-object({
+//
+// Write the decoder (= what you expect the data to look like)
+//
+const userDecoder = object({
     id: number,
     name: string,
-    address: optional(string),
+    createdAt: optional(iso8601),
+    tags: array(string),
 });
-```
-
-Which will decode to type:
-
-```javascript
-{
-  id: number,
-  name: string,
-  address?: string,
-}
-```

-[&lt;&gt;](https://github.com/nvie/decoders/blob/main/src/core/dispatch.js 'Source')
-
-**NOTE:** In decoders@1.x, this was called `dispatch()`.
-
-Like the `either` family, but only for building unions of object types with a common field
-(like a `type` field) that lets you distinguish members.
-
-The following two decoders are effectively equivalent:
-
-```javascript
-type Rect = { __type: 'rect', x: number, y: number, width: number, height: number };
-type Circle = { __type: 'circle', cx: number, cy: number, r: number };
-//              ^^^^^^
-//              Field that defines which decoder to pick
-//                                               vvvvvv
-const shape1: Decoder<Rect | Circle> = disjointUnion('__type', { rect, circle });
-const shape2: Decoder<Rect | Circle> = either(rect, circle);
-```
-
-But using `disjointUnion()` will typically be more runtime-efficient than using
-`either()`. The reason is that `disjointUnion()` will first do minimal work to "look
-ahead" into the `type` field here, and based on that value, pick which decoder to invoke.
-Error messages will then also be tailored to the specific decoder.
-
-The `either()` version will instead try each decoder in turn until it finds one that
-matches. If none of the alternatives match, it needs to report all errors, which is
-sometimes confusing.

-
-### The difference between `object`, `exact`, and `inexact`
-
-The three decoders in the "object" family of decoders only differ in how they treat extra
-properties on input values.
-
-For example, for a definition like:
-
-```js
-import { exact, inexact, number, object, string } from 'decoders';
-
-const thing = {
-    a: string,
-    b: number,
-};
-```
-
-And a runtime input of:
-
-```js
-{
-  a: "hi",
-  b: 42,
-  c: "extra",  // Note "c" is not a known field
-}
-```
-
-|                  | Extra properties | Output value                   | Inferred type                               |
-| ---------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------- |
-| `object(thing)`  | discarded        | `{a: "hi", b: 42}`             | `{a: string, b: number}`                    |
-| `exact(thing)`   | not allowed      | ⚡️ Runtime error              | `{a: string, b: number}`                    |
-| `inexact(thing)` | retained         | `{a: "hi", b: 42, c: "extra"}` | `{a: string, b: number, [string]: unknown}` |
-
-### Building custom decoders
-
-There are two main building blocks for defining your own custom decoders: `map()` and
-`compose()`.
-
-There are roughly 3 use cases that you will want to use:
-
-1. **[Transformation](#transformation)** (i.e. read one type, but return another, or read
-   a type but change its value before returning)
-1. **[Adding extra value requirements](#adding-predicates)** (i.e. decode using an
-   existing decoder, but require an extra value check)
-1. **Chaining** multiple decoders (less common, more advanced)
-
-#### Transformation
-
-To read one type from the input, but return another, use:
-
-```js
-const numericString: Decoder<number> = map(
-    // At runtime, expect to read a string...
-    string,
-    // ...but return it as a number
-    (s) => Number(s),
-);
-```
-
-To read one type, but change its value before returning:
-
-```js
-const upperCase: Decoder<string> = map(string, (s) => s.toUpperCase());
-```
-
-**WARNING:** While you can map anything to anything, it's typically **NOT A GOOD IDEA to
-put too much transformation logic inside decoders**. It's recommended to keep them minimal
-and only try to use them for the most basic use cases, like in the examples above. Keeping
-business logic outside decoders makes them more reusable and composable.
-
-#### Adding predicates
-
-The easiest way to decode using an existing decoder, but enforcing extra runtime checks on
-their values is by wrapping it in a `predicate(...)` construction:
-
-```js
-const odd = predicate(integer, (n) => n % 2 !== 0, 'Must be odd');
-const shortString = predicate(string, (s) => s.length < 8, 'Must be less than 8 chars');
-```

+const user = userDecoder.verify(externalData);
+//    ^^^^
+//    TypeScript can automatically infer this type now:
+//
+//    {
+//      id: number;
+//      name: string;
+//      createdAt?: Date;
+//      tags: string[];
