This week, I released my first official open source crate - typed-ident! This crate is actually a small part of a few other projects that I’m working on. I’m not quite ready to share those other projects yet, but I figured instead of taking months to release a few big projects, I could break out this functionality, polish it up, and release that. After all, it eventually needed to be factored out, and it seemed like it wouldn’t be too difficult. That was the idea at least, but as I’m sure you can tell just looking at the crate (and reading this article), it didn’t quite go to plan. This article should be a fun ride - I learned a lot working on this crate, and maybe even if you don’t plan on using it you will too!
