 This repository contains the `go-codec` library, the `codecgen` tool and

+This is a High Performance, Feature-Rich Idiomatic Go 1.20+ codec/encoding library
 for binary and text formats: binc, msgpack, cbor, json and simple.

 - `github.com/ugorji/go/codec` [README](codec/README.md)
-- `github.com/ugorji/go/codec/codecgen` (requires `github.com/ugorji/go/codec`) [README](codec/codecgen/README.md)

-For encoding and decoding, the `github.com/ugorji/go/codec` module is sufficient.
 
 To install:
 
 ```
 go get github.com/ugorji/go/codec
 ```

-The other modules exist for specific uses, and all require `github.com/ugorji/go/codec`
-
-- `github.com/ugorji/go/codec/codecgen` generates high performance static encoders/decoders for given types
-- `github.com/ugorji/go/codec/bench` benchmarks codec against other popular go libraries
-- `github.com/ugorji/go` is here for [historical compatibility reasons, as modules was initially introduced only at repo root](https://github.com/ugorji/go/issues/299)
