See the [`twilight`] documentation for more information.
`twilight-model` is a crate of serde models defining the Discord APIs with
few convenience methods on top of them.
These are in a single crate for ease of use, a single point of definition,
and a sort of versioning of the Discord API. Similar to how a database
schema progresses in versions, the definition of the API also progresses in
versions.
The types in this crate are reproducible: deserializing a payload into a
type, serializing it, and then deserializing it again will work.
Defined are a number of modules defining types returned by or owned by
resource categories. For example, `gateway` are types used to interact with
and returned by the gateway API. `guild` contains types owned by the Guild
resource category. These types may be directly returned by, built on top of,
or extended by other crates.
