Packaging etc

• Packaging is done with Cargo

• Each distributed package is called a Crate

• The primary Crate registry is Crates.io

• A simple starting guide is here

To create a new project, then compile and run it:

cargo new rust_example
cd rust_example
cargo run

• Add dependencies to Cargo.toml
