+/** A variable-sized buffer of bytes with `read()` and `write()` methods.
+ *
+ * Buffer is almost always used with some I/O like files and sockets. It allows
+ * one to buffer up a download from a socket. Buffer grows and shrinks as
+ * necessary.
+ *
+ * Buffer is NOT the same thing as Node's Buffer. Node's Buffer was created in
+ * 2009 before JavaScript had the concept of ArrayBuffers. It's simply a
+ * non-standard ArrayBuffer.
+ *
+ * ArrayBuffer is a fixed memory allocation. Buffer is implemented on top of
+ * ArrayBuffer.
+ *
+ * Based on [Go Buffer](https://golang.org/pkg/bytes/#Buffer). */
