+  >
+  standard library module defines Gleam's <code>Dict</code> type and functions
+  for working with it. A dict is a collection of keys and values which other
+  languages may call a hashmap or table.

+  are used to add and remove items from a dict.
+</p>
+<p>
+  Like lists, dicts are immutable. Inserting or deleting an item from a dict
+  will return a new dict with the item added or removed.
+</p>
+<p>
+  Dicts are unordered! If it appears that the items in a dict are in a certain
+  order this is incidental and should not be relied upon. Any ordering may
+  change without warning in future versions or on different runtimes.
