+Initializers
+------------
+
+The ``mlx.nn.init`` package contains commonly used initializers for neural
+network parameters. Initializers return a function which can be applied to any
+input :obj:`mlx.core.array` to produce an initialized output.
+
+For example:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   import mlx.core as mx
+   import mlx.nn as nn
+
+   init_fn = nn.init.uniform()
+
+   # Produces a [2, 2] uniform matrix
+   param = init_fn(mx.zeros((2, 2)))
+
+To re-initialize all the parameter in an :obj:`mlx.nn.Module` from say a uniform 
+distribution, you can do:
+
+.. code:: python
+  
+   import mlx.nn as nn
+   model = nn.Sequential(nn.Linear(5, 10), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(10, 5))
+   init_fn = nn.init.uniform(low=-0.1, high=0.1)
+   model.apply(init_fn)
