+dns-lint
+========
+
+Fast, lightweight, **pure JavaScript** (ES5.1) implementation for DNS / mDNS.
+
+Works great in **Web Browsers** and in node.js!
+
+Details error checking makes it great for
+
+* capture
+* packing (JSON to DNS)
+* parsing (DNS to JSON)
+* linting (finding errors in packets)
+* debugging
+
+**No external dependencies** for modern browsers. Uses `DataView`, `Uint8Array`, `Uint16Array`, and `ArrayBuffer`
+
+Similar API to `dns.js` and `native-dns-packet`.
+
+Install
+-------
+
+```
+npm install git+https://git@git.daplie.com:Daplie/dns-lint
+```
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+**CLI**
+
+You can work directly from `node_modules/dns-lint`:
+
+```
+pushd node_modules/dns-lint/
+```
+
+Capture mDNS broadcast packets
+
+```
+# example
+# node bin/mdns-capture.js <file-prefix>
+node bin/mdns-capture.js mdns-test
+```
+
+```
+# in another terminal
+dig @224.0.0.251 -p 5353 -t PTR _services._dns-sd._udp.local
+```
+
+Parsing a saved packet
+
+```
+# example
+# node bin/dns-parse.js </path/to/packet.dns.bin>
+node bin/dns-parse.js samples/a-0.mdns.bin
+```
+
+**Library**
+
+* `packet = dnsjs.unpack(arrayBuffer)`
+* `packet = dnsjs.unpackRdatas(arrayBuffer, packet)`
+* `packet.answers[0].data = dnsjs.unpackRdatas(arrayBuffer, packet, packet.answers[0])`
+
+node.js:
+```
+var nodeBuffer = fs.readFileSync('./samples/a-0.mdns.bin');
+var arrayBuffer = nodeBuffer.buffer;
+
+var dnsjs = require('dns-lint');
+var packet = dnsjs.unpack(arrayBuffer);
+
+console.log(packet);
+```
+
+Browser:
+```
+var arrayBuffer = new Uint8Array.from([ /* bytes */ ]).buffer;
+
+var packet = pdns.unpack(arrayBuffer);
+
+console.log(packet);
+```
