+// Package adapter provides an interface between govpp core and the VPP. It is responsible for sending
+// and receiving binary-encoded data to/from VPP via shared memory.
+//
+// The default adapter being used for connection with real VPP is called vppapiclient. It is based on the
+// communication with the vppapiclient VPP library written in C via CGO.
+//
+// Apart from the vppapiclient adapter, mock adapter is provided for unit/integration testing where the actual
+// communication with VPP is not demanded.
