`pinch` aims to provide an alternative implementation of Apache Thrift for
Haskell. The `pinch` library itself acts only as a serialization library. Types
specify their Thrift encoding by defining instances of the `Pinchable`
typeclass, which may be done by hand or automatically with the use of Generics.
Check the documentation and examples for more information.

Haddock documentation for this package is avilable on [Hackage] and [here].
