-## About
-
-LRPC stands for Lightweight RPC. It is a very lightweight RPC framework that is designed to be as idiomatic and easy to use as possible in Go.
-
-To add a new function, simply create a type and define a method on it, like so:
-
-```go
-package main
-
-import (
-    "fmt"
-    "time"
-    "strconv"
-    "go.arsenm.dev/lrpc/server"
-    "go.arsenm.dev/lrpc/codec"
-)
-
-type RPC struct{}
-
-// No arguments, no return values, no error, no channel
-func (RPC) Hello(_ *server.Context) {
-    fmt.Println("Hello, World")
-}
-
-// 1 argument, no return values, no error, no channel
-func (RPC) Hello(_ *server.Context, name string) {
-    fmt.Println("Hello,", name)
-}
-
-// 1 argument, 1 return value, no error, no channel
-func (RPC) Hello(_ *server.Context, name string) string {
-    return "Hello, " + name
-}
-
-// 1 argument, 1 return value, with error, no channel
-func (RPC) Atoi(_ *server.Context, num string) (int, error) {
-    return strconv.Atoi(num)
-}
-
-// 1 argument, 0 return values, with error, with channel
-// (client-terminated)
-func (RPC) Nums(ctx *server.Context, num int) error {
-    ch, err := ctx.MakeChannel()
-
-    go func() {
-        for {
-            select {
-            case <-time.After(time.Second):
-                ch <- num
-                num++
-            case <-ctx.Done(): // Signal received when client cancels their context
-                return
-            }
-        }
-    }()
-    
-    return nil
-}
-
-// 1 argument, 0 return values, with error, with channel
-// (server-terminated)
-func (RPC) Nums(ctx *server.Context, amount int) error {
-    ch, err := ctx.MakeChannel()
-
-    for i := 0; i < amount; i++ {
-        ch <- i
-        time.Sleep(time.Second)
-    }
-
-    // Sends a signal to the client, closing the channel
-    // on the client-side as well.
-    close(ch)
-    
-    return nil
-}
-```
-
-Then, it can be simply run like so:
-
-```go
-func main() {
-    ctx := context.Background()
-    srv := server.New()
-
-    err := srv.Register(RPC{})
-    if err != nil {
-        panic(err)
-    }
-
-    ln, err := net.Listen("tcp", ":8080")
-    if err != nil {
-        panic(err)
-    }
-
-    srv.Serve(ctx, ln, codec.Default) // Default is Msgpack
-}
-```
-
-## Why
-
-The reason I made LRPC is that I used to simply read JSON messages from a socket for ITD, but that was quickly becoming unmaintainable as more and more features were added. Therefore, I decided to switch to an RPC framework. 
-
-Seeing as Go's `net/rpc` was [frozen](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16844), I decided to look for a different one, and found [RPCX](https://github.com/smallnest/rpcx). Upon importing it, I noticed that it added a ridiculous 7MB to my binary. Two days later, LRPC was born. It's extremely lightweight, because it omits most of the features RPCX has, since I didn't need them anyway. Also, I needed a feature like the channels I implemented, and while RPCX was capable of doing something similar, it was very ugly and didn't work very well.
