+Metadata
+==========
+
+.. currentmodule:: packaging.metadata
+
+A data representation for `core metadata`_.
+
+
+Reference
+---------
+
+.. class:: DynamicField
+
+    An :class:`enum.Enum` representing fields which can be listed in
+    the ``Dynamic`` field of `core metadata`_. Every valid field is
+    a name on this enum, upper-cased with any ``-`` replaced with ``_``.
+    Each value is the field name lower-cased (``-`` are kept). For
+    example, the ``Home-page`` field has a name of ``HOME_PAGE`` and a
+    value of ``home-page``.
+
+
+.. class:: Metadata(name, version, *, platforms=None, summary=None, description=None, keywords=None, home_page=None, author=None, author_emails=None, license=None, supported_platforms=None, download_url=None, classifiers=None, maintainer=None, maintainer_emails=None, requires_dists=None, requires_python=None, requires_externals=None, project_urls=None, provides_dists= None, obsoletes_dists= None, description_content_type=None, provides_extras=None, dynamic_fields=None)
+
+    A class representing the `core metadata`_ for a project.
+
+    Every potential metadata field except for ``Metadata-Version`` is
+    represented by a parameter to the class' constructor. The required
+    metadata can be passed in positionally or via keyword, while all
+    optional metadata can only be passed in via keyword.
+
+    Every parameter has a matching attribute on instances,
+    except for *name* (see :attr:`display_name` and
+    :attr:`canonical_name`). Any parameter that accepts an
+    :class:`~collections.abc.Iterable` is represented as a
+    :class:`list` on the corresponding attribute.
+
+    :param str name: ``Name``.
+    :param packaging.version.Version version: ``Version`` (note
+        that this is different than ``Metadata-Version``).
+    :param Iterable[str] platforms: ``Platform``.
+    :param str summary: ``Summary``.
+    :param str description: ``Description``.
+    :param Iterable[str] keywords: ``Keywords``.
+    :param str home_page: ``Home-Page``.
+    :param str author: ``Author``.
+    :param Iterable[tuple[str | None, str]] author_emails: ``Author-Email``
+        where the two-item tuple represents the name and email of the author,
+        respectively.
+    :param str license: ``License``.
+    :param Iterable[str] supported_platforms: ``Supported-Platform``.
+    :param str download_url: ``Download-URL``.
+    :param Iterable[str] classifiers: ``Classifier``.
+    :param str maintainer: ``Maintainer``.
+    :param Iterable[tuple[str | None, str]] maintainer_emails: ``Maintainer-Email``,
+        where the two-item tuple represents the name and email of the maintainer,
+        respectively.
+    :param Iterable[packaging.requirements.Requirement] requires_dists: ``Requires-Dist``.
+    :param packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet requires_python: ``Requires-Python``.
+    :param Iterable[str] requires_externals: ``Requires-External``.
+    :param tuple[str, str] project_urls: ``Project-URL``.
+    :param Iterable[str] provides_dists: ``Provides-Dist``.
+    :param Iterable[str] obsoletes_dists: ``Obsoletes-Dist``.
+    :param str description_content_type: ``Description-Content-Type``.
+    :param Iterable[packaging.utils.NormalizedName] provides_extras: ``Provides-Extra``.
+    :param Iterable[DynamicField] dynamic_fields: ``Dynamic``.
+
+    Attributes not directly corresponding to a parameter are:
+
+    .. attribute:: display_name
+
+        The project name to be displayed to users (i.e. not normalized).
+        Initially set based on the *name* parameter.
+        Setting this attribute will also update :attr:`canonical_name`.
+
+    .. attribute:: canonical_name
+
+        The normalized project name as per
+        :func:`packaging.utils.canonicalize_name`. The attribute is
+        read-only and automatically calculated based on the value of
+        :attr:`display_name`.
