-/// # Examples:
+/// A `Gauge` renders a bar filled according to the value given to [`Gauge::percent`] or
+/// [`Gauge::ratio`]. The bar width and height are defined by the [`Rect`] it is
+/// [rendered](Widget::render) in.  
+/// The associated label is always centered horizontally and vertically. If not set with
+/// [`Gauge::label`], the label is the percentage of the bar filled.  
+/// You might want to have a higher precision bar using [`Gauge::use_unicode`].
+///
+/// This can be useful to indicate the progression of a task, like a download.
+///
+/// # Example
 ///
 /// ```
 /// use ratatui::{prelude::*, widgets::*};
 ///
 /// Gauge::default()
 ///     .block(Block::default().borders(Borders::ALL).title("Progress"))
