+interact with generic Go code, as introduced with Go 1.18.
+
+Many of the types and functions in this package are proxies for the new APIs
+introduced in the standard library with Go 1.18.  For example, the
+typeparams.Union type is an alias for @code{go/types.Union}, and the
+@code{ForTypeSpec} function returns the value of the
+@code{go/ast.TypeSpec.TypeParams} field.  At Go versions older than 1.18 these
+helpers are implemented as stubs, allowing users of this package to write code
+that handles generic constructs inline,even if the Go version being used to
+compile does not support generics.")
