+Devicetree-to-C generator
+=========================
+
+This is a Python program and associated utilities, which supports converting
+devicetree files into C code. It generates header files containing struct
+definitions, as well as C files containing the data. It does not require any
+modification of the devicetree files.
+
+Some high-level libraries are provided for working with devicetree. These may
+be useful in other projects.
+
+This package also includes some U-Boot-specific features, such as creating
+`struct udevice` and `struct uclass` entries for devicetree nodes.
