-## Context support for slog
+### Context support for slog
 
 Storing a logger in a `context.Context` is not supported by
-slog. `logr.NewContext` and `logr.FromContext` can be used with slog like this
-to fill this gap:
-
-    func HandlerFromContext(ctx context.Context) slog.Handler {

-allocations compared to using a `logr.Logger`. Therefore the recommendation is
-to use the `logr.Logger` API in code which uses contextual logging.
+slog. `NewContextWithSlogLogger` and `FromContextAsSlogLogger` can be
+used to fill this gap. They store and retrieve a `slog.Logger` pointer
+under the same context key that is also used by `NewContext` and
+`FromContext` for `logr.Logger` value.
+
+When `NewContextWithSlogLogger` is followed by `FromContext`, the latter will
+automatically convert the `slog.Logger` to a
+`logr.Logger`. `FromContextAsSlogLogger` does the same for the other direction.
+
+With this approach, binaries which use either slog or logr are as efficient as
+possible with no unnecessary allocations. This is also why the API stores a
+`slog.Logger` pointer: when storing a `slog.Handler`, creating a `slog.Logger`
+on retrieval would need to allocate one.
+
+The downside is that switching back and forth needs more allocations. Because
+logr is the API that is already in use by different packages, in particular
+Kubernetes, the recommendation is to use the `logr.Logger` API in code which
+uses contextual logging.
+
+An alternative to adding values to a logger and storing that logger in the
+context is to store the values in the context and to configure a logging
+backend to extract those values when emitting log entries. This only works when
+log calls are passed the context, which is not supported by the logr API.
+
+With the slog API, it is possible, but not
+required. https://github.com/veqryn/slog-context is a package for slog which
+provides additional support code for this approach. It also contains wrappers
+for the context functions in logr, so developers who prefer to not use the logr
+APIs directly can use those instead and the resulting code will still be
+interoperable with logr.

 // SlogSink is an optional interface that a LogSink can implement to support

-// also support special slog values like slog.Group. When used as a
-// slog.Handler, the advantages are:
+// logging through the slog.Logger or slog.Handler APIs better.
 //
-//   - stack unwinding gets avoided in favor of logging the pre-recorded PC,
-//     as intended by slog
-//   - proper grouping of key/value pairs via WithGroup
-//   - verbosity levels > slog.LevelInfo can be recorded
-//   - less overhead
-//
-// Both APIs (logr.Logger and slog.Logger/Handler) then are supported equally
-// well. Developers can pick whatever API suits them better and/or mix
-// packages which use either API in the same binary with a common logging
-// implementation.
-//
-// This interface is necessary because the type implementing the LogSink
-// interface cannot also implement the slog.Handler interface due to the
-// different prototype of the common Enabled method.
-//
-// An implementation could support both interfaces in two different types, but then
-// additional interfaces would be needed to convert between those types in NewLogr
-// and NewSlogHandler.
