+# Dipper
+
+A highly experimental pure rust DPI engine.
+
+## Rationale
+
+nDPI exists but it's all C and there's a lot of macros, it's hard to use cleanly
+from rust.
+
+Commercial DPI systems exist, but are prohibitivley expensive.
+
+Alternative "Kind of DPI" systems like Suricata exist and are great, but are
+only part rust.
+
+## Tools used
+
+- Nom is used extensivley in order to parse wire formats.
+- Etherparse is used to "chunk" packets into their various components.
+
+
+## Goals
+
+### Short Term
+
+- Functional offline packet inspection.
+- DNS, ICMP, HTTP, maybe SSH parsing and inspection.
+- Standardised output format.
+
+### Long Term
+
+- Online analysis
+- Plugin system?
