 * You can also define similar methods of `plan_rfft` and `plan_brfft` for real-input FFTs.
 
-* To enable automatic computation of adjoint plans via [`Base.adjoint`](@ref) (used in rules for reverse-mode differentiation), define the trait `AbstractFFTs.ProjectionStyle(::MyPlan)`, which can return:
-    * `AbstractFFTs.NoProjectionStyle()`,
-    * `AbstractFFTs.RealProjectionStyle()`, for plans that halve one of the output's dimensions analogously to [`rfft`](@ref),
-    * `AbstractFFTs.RealInverseProjectionStyle(d::Int)`, for plans that expect an input with a halved dimension analogously to [`irfft`](@ref), where `d` is the original length of the dimension.
+* We offer an experimental `AdjointStyle` trait to enable automatic computation of adjoint plans via [`Base.adjoint`](@ref),
+(which `AbstractFFTs` uses to implement reverse-mode differentiation rules). To support adjoints in a new plan, define the trait `AbstractFFTs.AdjointStyle(::MyPlan)`. This should return a subtype of `AS <: AbstractFFTs.AdjointStyle` supporting `AbstractFFTs.adjoint_mul(::AdjointPlan, ::AbstractArray, ::AS)`. `AbstractFFTs` pre-implements [`AbstractFFTs.FFTAdjointStyle`](@ref), [`AbstractFFTs.RFFTAdjointStyle`](@ref),
+[`AbstractFFTs.BRFFTAdjointStyle`](@ref), and [`AbstractFFTs.UnitaryAdjointStyle`](@ref).
 
 The normalization convention for your FFT should be that it computes ``y_k = \sum_j x_j \exp(-2\pi i j k/n)`` for a transform of
 length ``n``, and the "backwards" (unnormalized inverse) transform computes the same thing but with ``\exp(+2\pi i jk/n)``.
