 # [Rapid](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/rapid)
 
-This is a helper library for rapid prototyping in GHCi sessions.  It
-provides hot-reloadable background threads as well as values that can be
-reused across module reloads (to save initialisation time).  Main use
-cases include the development of long-running applications, especially
-those with multiple separable units:  servers, web applications,
-interactive user interfaces, etc.
+Hot reload and reload-surviving values with GHCi.
 
-A tutorial-style introduction is contained within the `Rapid` module.
+See [Rapid](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/rapid) on hackage for
+more info and a tutorial-style introduction.
