**KernelFunctions.jl** is a general purpose [kernel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive-definite_kernel) package.
It provides a flexible framework for creating kernel functions and manipulating them, and an extensive collection of implementations.
The main goals of this package are:
- **Flexibility**: operations between kernels should be fluid and easy without breaking, with a user-friendly API.
- **Plug-and-play**: being model-agnostic; including the kernels before/after other steps should be straightforward. To interoperate well with generic packages for handling parameters like [ParameterHandling.jl](https://github.com/invenia/ParameterHandling.jl/) and FluxML's [Functors.jl](https://github.com/FluxML/Functors.jl/).
- **Automatic Differentiation compatibility**: all kernel functions which _ought_ to be differentiable using AD packages like [ForwardDiff.jl](https://github.com/JuliaDiff/ForwardDiff.jl) or [Zygote.jl](https://github.com/FluxML/Zygote.jl) _should_ be.

Copied this over from https://github.com/JuliaGaussianProcesses/KernelFunctions.jl/blob/master/docs/src/index.md and edited it slightly. If you're happy with this I'll also "back-port" it to docs/src/index.md.

LGTM. Thanks for sorting this. The backport would be appreciated. If you do it in this PR, there's no need for a re-review.
