+This month, version 1.0 of [profiling] was released on crates.io. 🎉 🎉
+
+This crate provides a very thin abstraction over instrumented profiling crates
+like `puffin`, `optick`, `tracing`, `tracy`, and `superluminal-perf`.
+
+Profiling is used by multiple projects including `gfx-hal`, `rafx`, and
+`wgpu`.
