-- | 'Context's are used to pass values to combinators. (They are __not__ meant
-- to be used to pass parameters to your handlers, i.e. they should not replace
-- any custom 'Control.Monad.Trans.Reader.ReaderT'-monad-stack that you're using
-- with 'Servant.Utils.Enter'.) If you don't use combinators that
-- require any context entries, you can just use 'Servant.Server.serve' as always.
--
-- If you are using combinators that require a non-empty 'Context' you have to
-- use 'Servant.Server.serveWithContext' and pass it a 'Context' that contains all
-- the values your combinators need. A 'Context' is essentially a heterogenous
-- list and accessing the elements is being done by type (see 'getContextEntry').
-- The parameter of the type 'Context' is a type-level list reflecting the types
-- of the contained context entries. To create a 'Context' with entries, use the
-- operator @(':.')@:
--
-- >>> :type True :. () :. EmptyContext
-- True :. () :. EmptyContext :: Context '[Bool, ()]

-- * support for named subcontexts
-- | Normally context entries are accessed by their types. In case you need
-- to have multiple values of the same type in your 'Context' and need to access
-- them, we provide 'NamedContext'. You can think of it as sub-namespaces for
-- 'Context's.

-- won't have to use it yourself but instead use a combinator like
-- 'Servant.API.WithNamedContext.WithNamedContext'.
