+The Swiss Army knife of Python web development
+
+Werkzeug started as simple collection of various utilities for WSGI
+applications and has become one of the most advanced WSGI utility modules.
+It includes a powerful debugger, full featured request and response objects,
+HTTP utilities to handle entity tags, cache control headers, HTTP dates,
+cookie handling, file uploads, a powerful URL routing system and a bunch
+of community contributed addon modules.
+
+Werkzeug is unicode aware and doesn't enforce a specific template engine,
+database adapter or anything else. It doesn't even enforce a specific way
+of handling requests and leaves all that up to the developer.
+
+It's most useful for end user applications which should work on as many
+server environments as possible (such as blogs, wikis, bulletin boards, etc)
