+//! Implements the slightly odd "base32" encoding that's used in Nix.
+//!
+//! Nix uses a custom alphabet. Contrary to other implementations (RFC4648),
+//! encoding to "nix base32" doesn't use any padding, and reads in characters
+//! in reverse order.
+//!
+//! This is also the main reason why `data_encoding::Encoding` can't be used
+//! directly, but this module aims to provide a similar interface (with some
+//! methods omitted).

+/// Nixbase32Encoding wraps a data_encoding::Encoding internally.
+/// We can't use it directly, as nix also reads in characters in reverse order.
