+/// - [`Int<SizeT>`] identifies an [`IntType`] with bit-width [`CodeGenerator::get_size_type`].
+/// - [`Ptr<Int<SizeT>>`] identifies a [`PointerType`] that points to an [`IntType`] with bit-width [`CodeGenerator::get_size_type`].
+/// - [`Int<AnyInt>`] identifies an [`IntType`] with bit-width of whatever is set in the [`AnyInt`] object.
+/// - [`Any`] identifies a [`BasicType`] set in the [`Any`] object itself.
+///
+/// You can get the [`BasicType`] out of a model with [`Model::get_type`].
+///
+/// Furthermore, [`Instance<'ctx, M>`] is a simple structure that carries a [`BasicValue`] with [`BasicType`] identified by model `M`.
+///

+///
+/// ### Notes on `Default` trait
+///
+/// For some models like [`Int<Int32>`] or [`Int<SizeT>`], they have a [`Default`] trait since just by looking at their types, it is possible
+/// to tell the [`BasicType`]s they are identifying.
+///
+/// This can be used to create strongly-typed interfaces accepting only values of a specific [`BasicType`] without having to worry about

+/// ```
+///
+/// ### Notes on converting between Inkwell and model/ge.
+///
+/// Suppose you have an [`IntValue`], and you want to pass it into a function that takes a [`Instance<'ctx, Int<Int32>>`]. You can do use
+/// [`Model::check_value`] or [`Model::believe_value`].
+/// ```ignore

+/// A trait for Rust structs identifying LLVM structures.
+///
+/// ### Example
+///
+/// Suppose you want to define this structure:
+/// ```c
+/// template <typename T>
+/// struct ContiguousNDArray {
+///     size_t ndims;
+///     size_t* shape;
+///     T* data;
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
+/// This is how it should be done:
+/// ```ignore
+/// pub struct ContiguousNDArrayFields<'ctx, F: FieldTraversal<'ctx>, Item: Model<'ctx>> {
+///     pub ndims: F::Out<Int<SizeT>>,
+///     pub shape: F::Out<Ptr<Int<SizeT>>>,
+///     pub data: F::Out<Ptr<Item>>,
+/// }
+///
+/// /// An ndarray without strides and non-opaque `data` field in NAC3.
+/// #[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy)]
+/// pub struct ContiguousNDArray<M> {
+///     /// [`Model`] of the items.
+///     pub item: M,
+/// }
+///
+/// impl<'ctx, Item: Model<'ctx>> StructKind<'ctx> for ContiguousNDArray<Item> {
+///     type Fields<F: FieldTraversal<'ctx>> = ContiguousNDArrayFields<'ctx, F, Item>;
+///
+///     fn traverse_fields<F: FieldTraversal<'ctx>>(&self, traversal: &mut F) -> Self::Fields<F> {
+///         // The order of `traversal.add*` is important
+///         Self::Fields {
+///             ndims: traversal.add_auto("ndims"),
+///             shape: traversal.add_auto("shape"),
+///             data: traversal.add("data", Ptr(self.item)),
+///         }
+///     }
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
+/// The [`FieldTraversal`] here is a mechanism to allow the fields of `ContiguousNDArrayFields` to be
+/// traversed to do useful work such as:
+///
+/// - To create the [`StructType`] of `ContiguousNDArray` by collecting [`BasicType`]s of the fields.
+/// - To enable the `.gep(ctx, |f| f.ndims).store(ctx, ...)` syntax.
+///
+/// Suppose now that you have defined `ContiguousNDArray` and you want to allocate a `ContiguousNDArray`
+/// with dtype `float64` in LLVM, this is how you do it:
+/// ```ignore
+/// type F64NDArray = Struct<ContiguousNDArray<Float<Float64>>>; // Type alias for leaner documentation
+/// let model: F64NDArray = Struct(ContigousNDArray { item: Float(Float64) });
+/// let ndarray: Instance<'ctx, Ptr<F64NDArray>> = model.alloca(generator, ctx);
+/// ```
+///
+/// ...and here is how you may manipulate/access `ndarray`:
+///
+/// (NOTE: some arguments have been omitted)
+///
+/// ```ignore
+/// // Get `&ndarray->data`
+/// ndarray.gep(|f| f.data); // type: Instance<'ctx, Ptr<Float<Float64>>>
+///
+/// // Get `ndarray->ndims`
+/// ndarray.get(|f| f.ndims); // type: Instance<'ctx, Int<SizeT>>
+///
+/// // Get `&ndarray->ndims`
+/// ndarray.gep(|f| f.ndims); // type: Instance<'ctx, Ptr<Int<SizeT>>>
+///
+/// // Get `ndarray->shape[0]`
+/// ndarray.get(|f| f.shape).get_index_const(0); // Instance<'ctx, Int<SizeT>>
+///
+/// // Get `&ndarray->shape[2]`
+/// ndarray.get(|f| f.shape).offset_const(2); // Instance<'ctx, Ptr<Int<SizeT>>>
+///
+/// // Do `ndarray->ndims = 3;`
+/// let num_3 = Int(SizeT).const_int(3);
+/// ndarray.set(|f| f.ndims, num_3);
+/// ```
