This library was inspired by [Java Poet](https://github.com/square/javapoet), as a library that provides

a simple language model for generating Go code.

The model it provides is much simpler than the model exposed by `go/ast` and `go/types`, both in its

expressive power and in its usability. It cannot model implementation code, which is handled in the

library with special support for formatting (a la `fmt.Printf`) references to symbols and types. This

support allows it to provide automatic management of import statements: so you just build the model of

the program to generate, and it will emit the program with all of the necessary imports and properly

qualified references in the code.
