+### Why stdlib?
+
+* Fortran has a limited set of built-in procedures
+* Limited capacity for general purpose programming
+* Wheels keep getting re-invented
+* Many requests to the Fortran Committee can be prototyped in libraries

+<section>
+
+### Implemented so far
+
+* 34 procedures across 9 modules:
+`ascii`, `error`, `io`, `kinds`, `linalg`, `optval`, `quadrature`, `stats`, `system`
+* Compatible with any rank and kind
+* 16 direct source code contributors
