+WirePlumber Configuration
+===
+
+This directory contains WirePlumber's configuration files.
+There are 4 kinds of files:
+
+* `wireplumber.conf`
+
+  This file lists the modules that are being loaded by WirePlumber.
+
+* `*.endpoint` files
+
+  These files contain rules to create endpoints when WirePlumber detects
+  new nodes in the pipewire graph. They are TOML v0.5 files.
+
+  The `00-stream-*.endpoint` files contain rules to create endpoints for the
+  nodes of the client applications that connect to pipewire. You should not
+  change or remove those unless you know what you are doing.
+
+  The rest of the `.endpoint` files contain rules to create endpoints for
+  ALSA device nodes.
+
+  TODO: more info
+
+* `*.endpoint-link` files
+
+  These files contain rules to link endpoints with each other. They are part
+  of the policy module.
+
+* `*.streams` files
+
+  These files contain a list of streams and their priorities.
+
+  The names of the streams are used to create streams on new endpoints.
+  In order to use a specific list of streams for a specific endpoint,
+  the relevant `.endpoint` file that contains the creation rule for that
+  endpoint must reference the `.streams` file.
+
+  The stream priorities are being interpreted by the policy module to apply
+  restrictions on which app can use the device at a given time.
+
+  The `media.role` of the application's stream is matched against the names
+  of the streams when applying policy.
