- * \page Page_WhyUseLUFA Why Use LUFA?
- *
- * The LUFA Library has many advantages over implementing the code required to drive the USB AVRs directly.
- * It is much more preferable to incorporate LUFA into your existing projects - or even make a new project
- * using LUFA - than it is to start from scratch and use the USB AVR registers directly. Some of these reasons
- * are:
- *
- * - <b>Portability:</b>
- * The LUFA stack is designed to run (at some capacity) on the entire Atmel range of USB AVRs, regardless of the
- * exact USB controller revision used. If you decide to implement your own USB stack, you will either need to
- * code around the differences between each USB AVR controller's implementation between different chip models, or
- * require your code to run on only one specific USB AVR model series.
- *
- * - <b>Speed of Development:</b>
- * LUFA ships with a wide range of pre-made demos, bootloaders and projects for you to try, learn and extend. Each
- * of these demos are tested (where possible) across as many USB AVRs and Operating Systems as possible, to ensure
- * that they work under as many conditions as possible. In addition, there are inbuilt class drivers for several of
- * the USB classes which you can make use of in your projects with minimal effort.
- *
- * - <b>Maintainability:</b>
- * As LUFA takes care of much of the USB implementation, you can be left to focusing on your actual project's
- * functionality, rather than being held back developing and debugging the USB stack code. Since LUFA uses clear APIs
- * for USB development, your code will be more readable than if it had the low level USB stack code integrated into
- * it directly. Updating the LUFA library is a simple folder-replacement and gives new features and bug fixes in
- * seconds each time a new release is made.
- *
- * - <b>Size:</b>
- * Not just requiring less code to make complex USB devices, LUFA is written to compile down as much as possible into
- * optimal code, to occupy only a small space for its feature set.
- *
- * - <b>Support:</b>
- * Since many people are now using LUFA in their own projects, you can take advantage of other's knowledge when you run
- * into difficulties or need some advice. In addition, you can also email the library author to receive personalized
- * support when you need it (subject to author's schedule).

- * \li \subpage Page_AlternativeStacks - Alternative USB AVR Stacks
