+    /// The `text_direction_codepoint_in_literal` lint detects Unicode codepoints that change the
+    /// visual representation of text on screen in a way that does not correspond to their on
+    /// memory representation.
+    ///
+    /// ### Explanation
+    ///
+    /// The unicode characters `\u{202A}`, `\u{202B}`, `\u{202D}`, `\u{202E}`, `\u{2066}`,
+    /// `\u{2067}`, `\u{2068}`, `\u{202C}` and `\u{2069}` make the flow of text on screen change
+    /// its direction on software that supports these codepoints. This makes the text "abc" display
+    /// as "cba" on screen. By leveraging software that supports these, people can write specially
+    /// crafted literals that make the surrounding code seem like it's performing one action, when
+    /// in reality it is performing another. Because of this, we proactively lint against their
+    /// presence to avoid surprises.
+    ///
+    /// ### Example
+    ///
+    /// ```rust,compile_fail
+    /// #![deny(text_direction_codepoint_in_literal)]
+    /// fn main() {
+    ///     println!("{:?}", '‮');
+    /// }
