+# Specialized .NET Stream classes
+
+*Enhanced streams for communication in-proc or across the Internet.*
+
+## Features
+
+1. [`SimplexStream`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/SimplexStream.md) is meant to allow two parties to communicate *one direction*.
+   Anything written to the stream can subsequently be read from it. You can share this `Stream`
+   with any two parties (in the same AppDomain) and one can send messages to the other.
+1. [`FullDuplexStream`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/FullDuplexStream.md) creates a pair of bidirectional streams for
+   in-proc two-way communication; it also creates a single bidirectional stream from two
+   unidirectional streams.
+1. [`MultiplexingStream`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/MultiplexingStream.md) allows you to split any bidirectional
+   .NET Stream into many sub-streams (called channels). This allows two parties to establish
+   just one transport stream (e.g. named pipe or web socket) and use it for many independent
+   protocols. For example, one might set up JSON-RPC on one channel and use other channels for
+   efficient binary transfers.
+1. [`AsStream()`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/AsStream.md) wraps a `WebSocket`, `System.IO.Pipelines.PipeReader`,
+   `System.IO.Pipelines.PipeWriter`, or `System.IO.Pipelines.IDuplexPipe` with a
+   `System.IO.Stream` for reading and/or writing.
+1. [`UsePipe()`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/UsePipe.md) enables reading from
+   and writing to a `Stream` or `WebSocket` using the `PipeReader` and `PipeWriter` APIs.
+1. [`Stream.ReadSlice(long)`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/ReadSlice.md) creates a sub-stream that ends after
+   a given number of bytes.
+1. [`PipeReader.ReadSlice(long)`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/ReadSlice.md) creates a sub-`PipeReader` that ends after
+   a given number of bytes.
+1. [`MonitoringStream`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/MonitoringStream.md) wraps another Stream and raises events for
+   all I/O calls so you can monitor and/or trace the data as it goes by.
+1. [`WriteSubstream` and `ReadSubstream`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/Substream.md) allow you to serialize data of
+   an unknown length as part of a larger stream, and later deserialize it such in reading the
+   substream, you cannot read more bytes than were written to it.
+1. [`Sequence<T>`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/Sequence.md) is a builder for `ReadOnlySequence<T>`.
+1. [`PrefixingBufferWriter<T>`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/PrefixingBufferWriter.md) wraps another `IBufferWriter<T>`
+   to allow for prefixing some header to the next written buffer, which may be arbitrarily long.
+1. [`BufferTextWriter`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/BufferTextWriter.md) is a `TextWriter`-derived type that can
+   write directly to any `IBufferWriter<byte>`, making it more reusable than `StreamWriter`
+   and thus allows for alloc-free writing across many writers.
+1. [`SequenceTextReader`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/SequenceTextReader.md) is a `TextReader`-derived type that can
+   read directly from any `ReadOnlySequence<byte>`, making it more reusable than `StreamReader`
+   and thus allows for alloc-free reading across many sequences.
+1. [`DuplexPipe`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/DuplexPipe.md) is a trivial implementation of `IDuplexPipe`.
+1. [`Stream.ReadBlockAsync`](https://github.com/dotnet/Nerdbank.Streams/blob/main/doc/ReadBlockAsync.md) guarantees to fill the supplied buffer except under certain documented conditions, instead of the regular `ReadAsync` guarantee of supplying at least 1 byte.
