+== String ==
+
+The `String` class encapsulates an array of chars representing '''UTF-8 characters'''.
+
+Strings can be constructed from other strings or from C-style strings:
+
+{{{
+#!cpp
+String s1;           /* Will be empty */
+String s2("ABC");    /* Will contain "ABC" */
+String s3("ABC", 2); /* Will contain "AB" */
+String s4(s3);       /* Will contain "AB" */
+}}}
+
+The length specifier helps building strings containing the null char:
+
+{{{
+#!cpp
+String s1("abc\0def");    /* Will contain "abc" */
+String s2("abc\0def", 7); /* Will contain "abc\0def" */
+}}}
+
+The contents of a string can be accessed as a constant C string using the `C()` accessor:
+
+{{{
+#!cpp
+String s("Hello!");
+printf("%s\n", s.C());
+}}}
