★ Typed Identifiers

  • Released 0.0.3 of the typed-ident crate (full release notes)!

  • Allows conversion traits to bind to typed results (#38).

  • Cleaned up formatting options to make the traits more approachable (#40)

  • Updated documentation in preparation for the new release (#42)

  • And other usability improvements for the typed-ident API.

This will be the last update to typed-ident for a while.

I still want to add spanned identifiers. That’s my most wanted feature, and arguably the main reason that I even developed the crate in the first place. However, I think it would be best to first have a crate that plans on using the feature before continuing to develop it - so that I can dogfood the design a bit locally.

The crate is in a really good place right now though. It may have a few small design or usability issues, but I think it needs to be used a bit to find them.

Next week, I’ll start preparing the next crate I plan on publishing.
