Hey again, Sergiu! I have a few suggestions for this package. I think
you forgot to run the linter :) which is okay! However, had you run it,
it would have warned you about the synopsis starting with an article,
the synopsis ending with a period, and the description not being double
spaced after each sentence punctuation. If you could reroll a V2 for
this, I would appreciate it!

Thanks!
