+==========
+Validation
+==========
+
+`cattrs` has a detailed validation mode since version 2022.1.0, and this mode is enabled by default.
+When running under detailed validation, the un/structuring hooks are slightly slower but produce more precise and exhaustive error messages.
+
+Detailed validation
+-------------------
+In detailed validation mode, any un/structuring errors will be grouped and raised together as a ``cattrs.BaseValidationError``, which is a `PEP 654 ExceptionGroup`_.
+ExceptionGroups are special exceptions which contain lists of other exceptions, which may themselves be other ExceptionGroups.
+In essence, ExceptionGroups are trees of exceptions.
+
+When un/structuring a class, `cattrs` will gather any exceptions on a field-by-field basis and raise them as a ``cattrs.ClassValidationError``, which is a subclass of ``BaseValidationError``.
+When structuring sequences and mappings, `cattrs` will gather any exceptions on a key- or index-basis and raise them as a ``cattrs.IterableValidationError``, which is a subclass of ``BaseValidationError``.
+
+The exceptions will also have their ``__note__`` attributes set, as per `PEP 678`_, showing the field, key or index for each inner exception.
+
+A simple example involving a class containing a list and a dictionary:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    @define
+    class Class:
+        a_list: list[int]
+        a_dict: dict[str, int]
+
+    >>> structure({"a_list": ["a"], "a_dict": {"str": "a"}})

+
+Non-detailed validation
+-----------------------
+
+Non-detailed validation can be enabled by initializing any of the converters with ``detailed_validation=False``.
+In this mode, any errors during un/structuring will bubble up directly as soon as they happen
