+# ABSTRACT: create bare-bones Makefile.PL files for use with dzil
 
 use ExtUtils::MakeMaker ();
 
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  # Makefile.PL
+  use ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Dist::Zilla::Develop;
+  WriteMakefile(NAME => 'Foo::Bar');
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+L<Dist::Zilla> makes developing modules much easier by generating all kinds of
+boilerplate files, saving authors from having to write them by hand, but in
+some cases this can make developing more inconvenient. The most prominent
+example of this is with C<Makefile.PL> files - although the majority of
+distributions can be hacked on just by editing the files in a source control
+checkout and using C<prove> for testing, for some this isn't sufficient. In
+particular, distributions which use an auto-generated test suite and
+distributions which use XS both need special handling at build time before they
+will function, and with Dist::Zilla, this means running C<dzil build> and
+rebuilding after every change. This is tedious!
+
+This module provides an alternative. Create a minimal C<Makefile.PL> in source
+control which handles just enough functionality for basic development (it can
+be as minimal as just what is in the L</SYNOPSIS>, but can also contain
+commands to generate your test suite, for example), and tell Dist::Zilla to
+replace it with a real C<Makefile.PL> when you're actually ready to build a
+real distribution. To do this, make sure you're still using the
+L<MakeMaker|Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MakeMaker> plugin, either directly or through
+a pluginbundle like L<@Basic|Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Basic>, and add this to
+your C<dist.ini>:
+
+  [PruneFiles]
+  filenames = Makefile.PL
+
+In addition, this module also intercepts the C<install> and C<dist> rules in
+the generated Makefile to run the appropriate Dist::Zilla commands
+(C<dzil install> and C<dzil build>). This allows users to continue to use the
+C<perl Makefile.PL && make && make install> set of commands, and have the
+correct thing continue to happen.
+
+Note that if you're using this module to ease testing of an XS distribution,
+you'll need to account for your module not containing a C<$VERSION> statement
+(assuming you're using the L<PkgVersion|Dist::Zilla::Plugin::PkgVersion>
+plugin). To do this, you should use an XSLoader invocation similar to this:
+
+  BEGIN {
+      XSLoader::load(
+          'Foo::Bar',
+          $Foo::Bar::{VERSION} ? ${ $Foo::Bar::{VERSION} } : ()
+      );
+  }
+
+This ensures that the C<$Foo::Bar::VERSION> glob isn't created if it didn't
+exist initially, since this can confuse XSLoader.
