Rust Best Practices

Guidelines for writing idiomatic, efficient, and maintainable Rust code.

Core Principles

1. Leverage the type system - Make invalid states unrepresentable
2. Prefer compile-time checks - Catch errors before runtime
3. Be explicit about ownership - Don't fight the borrow checker
4. Write code that passes fmt/clippy first - Not after fixing

Error Handling

Application Code: Use anyhow

use anyhow::{Context, Result, bail};
