defmodule RDF do
  @moduledoc """
  The top-level module of RDF.ex.

  RDF.ex consists of:

  - modules for the nodes of an RDF graph
    - `RDF.IRI`
    - `RDF.BlankNode`
    - `RDF.Literal`
  - a facility for the mapping of URIs of a vocabulary to Elixir modules and
    functions: `RDF.Vocabulary.Namespace`
  - modules for the construction of statements
    - `RDF.Triple`
    - `RDF.Quad`
    - `RDF.Statement`
  - modules for collections of statements
    - `RDF.Description`
    - `RDF.Graph`
    - `RDF.Dataset`
    - `RDF.Data`
    - `RDF.List`
  - functions for working with RDF serializations: `RDF.Serialization`
  - behaviours for the definition of RDF serialization formats
    - `RDF.Serialization.Format`
    - `RDF.Serialization.Decoder`
    - `RDF.Serialization.Encoder`
  - and the implementation of various RDF serialization formats
    - `RDF.NTriples`
    - `RDF.NQuads`
    - `RDF.Turtle`

  This top-level module provides shortcut functions for the construction of the
  basic elements and structures of RDF and some general helper functions.

  For a general introduction you may refer to the [README](readme.html).
