+# Meta variant structs and enums
+
+Meta variants are an optional feature, useful for scenarios where you'd want nested
+enums at the top-level. structs will be created for all combinations of `meta_variants`
+and `variants`, names in the format `{BaseName}{MetaVariantName}{VariantName}`. 
+Additionally, enums will be created for each `meta_variant` named `{BaseName}{MetaVariantName}`.
+
+For example:
+
+```rust,no_run,no_playground
+#[superstruct(meta_variants(Baz, Qux), variants(Foo, Bar))]
+struct MyStruct {
+    name: String,
+    #[superstruct(only(Foo))]
+    location: u16,
+    #[superstruct(meta_only(Baz))]
+    score: u64,
+    #[superstruct(only(Bar), meta_only(Qux))]
+    id: usize,
+}
+```
+
+Here the `BaseName` is `MyStruct` and there are two variants in the meta-enum called 
+`Baz` and `Qux`.
+
+The generated enums are:
+
+```rust,no_run,no_playground
+enum MyStruct{
+    Baz(MyStructBaz),
+    Qux(MyStructQux),
+}
+
+enum MyStructBaz{
+    Foo(MyStructBazFoo),
+    Bar(MyStructBazBar),
+}
+
+enum MyStructQux{
+    Foo(MyStructQuxFoo),
+    Bar(MyStructQuxBar),
+}
+```
+
+The generated variant structs are:
+
+```rust,no_run,no_playground
+struct MyStructBazFoo {
+    name: String,
+    location: u16,
+    score: u64,
+}
+
+struct MyStructBazBar {
+    name: String,
+    score: u64,
+}
+
+struct MyStructQuxFoo {
+    name: String,
+    location: u16,
+}
+
+struct MyStructQuxBar {
+    name: String,
+    id: usize,
+}
+```
+
+Note how the `only` attribute still applies, and a new `meta_only` attribute can be used to
+control the presence of fields in each meta variant.
+
+For more information see [Struct attributes](../config/struct.md).
