+//! Provides the `RustIrDatabase` implementation for `chalk-solve`
+//!
+//! The purpose of the `chalk_solve::RustIrDatabase` is to get data about
+//! specific types, such as bounds, where clauses, or fields. This file contains
+//! the minimal logic to assemble the types for `chalk-solve` by calling out to
+//! either the `TyCtxt` (for information about types) or
+//! `crate::chalk::lowering` (to lower rustc types into Chalk types).

+//! Contains the logic to lower rustc types into Chalk types
+//!
+//! In many cases there is a 1:1 relationship between a rustc type and a Chalk type.
+//! For example, a `SubstsRef` maps almost directly to a `Substitution`. In some
+//! other cases, such as `Param`s, there is no Chalk type, so we have to handle
+//! accordingly.
+//!
+//! ## `Ty` lowering
+//! Much of the `Ty` lowering is 1:1 with Chalk. (Or will be eventually). A
+//! helpful table for what types lower to what can be found in the
+//! [Chalk book](http://rust-lang.github.io/chalk/book/types/rust_types.html).
+//! The most notable difference lies with `Param`s. To convert from rustc to
+//! Chalk, we eagerly and deeply convert `Param`s to placeholders (in goals) or
+//! bound variables (for clause generation through functions in `db`).
+//!
+//! ## `Region` lowering
+//! Regions are handled in rustc and Chalk is quite differently. In rustc, there
+//! is a difference between "early bound" and "late bound" regions, where only
+//! the late bound regions have a `DebruijnIndex`. Moreover, in Chalk all
+//! regions (Lifetimes) have an associated index. In rustc, only `BrAnon`s have
+//! an index, whereas `BrNamed` don't. In order to lower regions to Chalk, we
+//! convert all regions into `BrAnon` late-bound regions.
+//!
+//! ## `Const` lowering
+//! Chalk doesn't handle consts currently, so consts are currently lowered to
+//! an empty tuple.
+//!
+//! ## Bound variable collection
+//! Another difference between rustc and Chalk lies in the handling of binders.
+//! Chalk requires that we store the bound parameter kinds, whereas rustc does
+//! not. To lower anything wrapped in a `Binder`, we first deeply find any bound
+//! variables from the current `Binder`.
