 %description
-Seamless operability between C++11 and Python
+pybind11 is a header-only library that exposes C++ types in Python
+and vice versa, mainly to create Python bindings of existing C++
+code. It can reduce boilerplate code in traditional extension modules
+by inferring type information using compile-time introspection.
