[Zarr-Python], the current canonical Python library for working with Zarr, is primarily _written in Python_. Aside from a few compiled dependencies, all of Zarr-Python's own source code is Python.

In contrast, Zarrista is _fully compiled_. Only the user interface is Python; everything else is compiled Rust code. When you read data from a Zarr [`Array`][zarrista.Array] object, the entire sequence of operations is happening in compiled code.

will people understand user interface as used here? I wonder if it's better to say that there's a thin layer of type definitions in python and the rest is Rust

it might be good to work in a section about the "tensor polymorphism", or how zarrista aims to support array containers that work for all zarr data types, not just the ones with an easy expression as numpy arrays.
