+/// The abstract representation of a command line argument. Used to set all the options and
+/// relationships that define a valid argument for the program.
+///
+/// There are two methods for constructing [`Arg`]s, using the builder pattern and setting options
+/// manually, or using a usage string which is far less verbose but has fewer options. You can also
+/// use a combination of the two methods to achieve the best of both worlds.
+///
+/// - [Basic API][crate::Arg#basic-api]
+/// - [Value Handling][crate::Arg#value-handling]
+/// - [Help][crate::Arg#help-1]
+/// - [Advanced Argument Relations][crate::Arg#advanced-argument-relations]
+/// - [Reflection][crate::Arg#reflection]
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # use clap_builder as clap;
+/// # use clap::{Arg, arg, ArgAction};
+/// // Using the traditional builder pattern and setting each option manually
+/// let cfg = Arg::new("config")
+/// .short('c')
+/// .long("config")
+/// .action(ArgAction::Set)
+/// .value_name("FILE")
+/// .help("Provides a config file to myprog");
