+Ethers uses a middleware-based architecture. You start the middleware stack with
+a [`Provider`](ethers_providers::Provider), and wrap it with additional
+middleware functionalities that you need.
+
+## Available Middleware
+
+- [`Signer`](./signer/struct.SignerMiddleware.html): Signs transactions locally,
+  with a private key or a hardware wallet
+- [`Nonce Manager`](./nonce_manager/struct.NonceManagerMiddleware.html): Manages
+  nonces locally, allowing the rapid broadcast of transactions without having to
+  wait for them to be submitted
+- [`Gas Escalator`](./gas_escalator/struct.GasEscalatorMiddleware.html): Bumps
+  transaction gas prices in the background
+- [`Gas Oracle`](./gas_oracle/struct.GasOracleMiddleware.html): Allows getting
+  your gas price estimates from places other than `eth_gasPrice`.
+- [`Transformer`](./transformer/trait.Transformer.html): Allows intercepting and
+  transforming a transaction to be broadcasted via a proxy wallet, e.g.
+  [`DSProxy`](./transformer/struct.DsProxy.html).
+
+## Example of a middleware stack
+
+```no_run
+use ethers_providers::{Provider, Http};
+use ethers_signers::{LocalWallet, Signer};
+use ethers_middleware::{
+    gas_escalator::{GasEscalatorMiddleware, GeometricGasPrice, Frequency},

+let escalator = GeometricGasPrice::new(1.125, 60u64, None::<u64>);
