+# … LeaderView
+
+![Platform](https://img.shields.io/badge/platform-iOS%20%7C%20macOS%20%7C%20tvOS%20%7C%20watchOS-blue)
+
+`LeaderView` is a configurable typographical element that renders a baseline "leader line" from one view to the next, as found in a book index:
+
+```
+Chapter One: The Dottening ……………………………… 1
+Chapter Two: The Dots Return ………………………… 12
+Chapter Three: These Things Again?! ……… 18
+...
+Chapter Twenty-Six: Where
+the Hell Are They All
+Coming From?!             ………………………………… 206
+```
+
+## Features
+
+You can configure:
+
+* Inter-view spacing
+* Inter-dot spacing
+* Dot diameter
+* Dot color
+* Layout Priority (leading / trailing views)
+* Vertical alignment (default/best is last-baseline)
+
+
+### Example
+
+To create a simple leader:
+
+```swift
+import LeaderView
+
+Leader {
+  Text("Chapter One: The Dottening")
+    .font(.title2)
+} trailingView: {
+  Text("1")
+    .font(.title3)
+    .monospaced()
+    }
+```
+
+To get all fancy with it:
+
+```swift
+import LeaderView
+
+Leader(
+  dotDiameter: dotDiameter,
+  viewSpacing: viewSpacing,
+  dotSpacing: dotSpacing,
+  minLeaderWidth: minLeaderWidth
+) {
+  Text("Introduction")
+    .font(.title2)
+} trailingView: {
+  Text("ii")
+    .font(.title3)
+    .monospaced()
+    .italic()
+}
+```
