    "description": [
      "This package provides the 'ShortText' type which is suitable for keeping many short strings in memory. This is similiar to how 'ShortByteString' relates to 'ByteString'.\n.\nThe main difference between 'Text' and 'ShortText' is that 'ShortText' doesn't support zero-copy slicing (thereby saving 2 words), and, compared to text-1.*, that it uses UTF-8 instead of UTF-16 internally. Consequently, the memory footprint of a (boxed) 'ShortText' value is 4 words (2 words when unboxed) plus the length of the UTF-8 encoded payload."
