+This repo provides data structures for BOLT 11 lightning invoices and
+functions to parse and serialize these from and to bech32.
+
+**Please be sure to run the test suite since we need to check assumptions
+regarding `SystemTime`'s bounds on your platform. You can also call `check_platform`
+on startup or in your test suite to do so.**
