+## About
+
+Provides `Index` and `Range` types to simplify slicing operations on collections for .NET Framework and .NET Standard 2.0.
+Provides `Base64Url` for encoding data in a URL-safe manner on .NET Framework and .NET Standard.
+
+This library is not necessary nor recommended when targeting versions of .NET that include the relevant support.
+
+## Key Features
+
+<!-- The key features of this package -->
+
+* Enables the use of `Index` and `Range` types on older .NET platforms.
+* Provides `Base64Url` encoding, decoding, and validation for URL-safe data processing on older .NET platforms.
+
+## How to Use
+
+<!-- A compelling example on how to use this package with code, as well as any specific guidelines for when to use the package -->
+
+The `Index` and `Range` types simplify working with slices of arrays, strings, or other collections.
+
+```csharp
+string[] words = ["The", "quick", "brown", "fox", "jumps", "over", "the", "lazy", "dog"];
+
+// Use Index to reference the last element
+Console.WriteLine(words[^1]);
+// Output: "dog"
+
+// Use Range to reference a slice
+string[] phrase = words[1..4];
+Console.WriteLine(string.Join(" ", phrase));
+// Output: "quick brown fox"
+```
+
+`Base64Url` encoding is a URL-safe version of Base64, commonly used in web applications, such as JWT tokens.
+
+```csharp
+using System.Buffers.Text;
+using System.Text;
+
+// Original data
+byte[] data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Hello World!");
+
+Span<byte> encoded = new byte[Base64Url.GetEncodedLength(data.Length)];
+Base64Url.EncodeToUtf8(data, encoded, out int _, out int bytesWritten);
+
+string encodedString = Base64Url.EncodeToString(data);  
+Console.WriteLine($"Encoded: {encodedString}");
+// Encoded: SGVsbG8gV29ybGQh
+
+Span<byte> decoded = new byte[data.Length];
+Base64Url.DecodeFromUtf8(encoded[..bytesWritten], decoded, out _, out bytesWritten);
+
+string decodedString = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(decoded[..bytesWritten]);
+Console.WriteLine($"Decoded: {decodedString}");
+// Decoded: Hello World!
+```
