+				   <p>A collection of classes that implement the data formatters subsystem.</p>
+				<p>The main entry point for interacting with the LLDB data formatters is the DataVisualization class. It provides
+					a relatively stable front-end interface to ask questions of the data formatters regardless of the internal implementation.</p>
+				<p>For people actively maintaining the data formatters subsystem itself, however, the FormatManager class is the relevant point of entry.
+					This class is subject to more frequent changes as the formatters evolve. Currently, it provides a thin caching layer on top of a list of categories
+					that each export a group of formatters.
+					</p>
+				<p>From an end-user perspective, the "type" LLDB command is the point of access to the data formatters. A large group of generally-useful formatters
+					is provided by default and loaded upon debugger startup.
