+      ndn-cxx is a C++ library, implementing Named Data Networking (NDN)
+      primitives that can be used to implement various NDN applications.
+      NDN operates by addressing and delivering Content Objects directly
+      by Name instead of merely addressing network end-points. In addition,
+      the NDN security model explicitly secures individual Content Objects
+      rather than securing the connection or “pipe”. Named and secured
+      content resides in distributed caches automatically populated on
+      demand or selectively pre-populated. When requested by name, NDN
+      delivers named content to the user from the nearest cache, thereby
+      traversing fewer network hops, eliminating redundant requests,
+      and consuming less resources overall.
