tomatocream d61ba8aec2 Add README.md and make the template workflow explicit in CLAUDE.md
README covers the copy-clone-rename-build flow and the simple cargo/nix
run commands. CLAUDE.md now states the intended workflow up front
(rename script, then build whatever the user actually wants) instead
of only implying it via the rename-script section.

rust_template

A minimal Rust project template: a clap CLI backed by a library crate, with unit tests, an integration test, a criterion benchmark, and a Nix flake (crane + fenix) — so it builds the same way with plain cargo or with nix.

Using this template

  1. Copy/clone this repo.
  2. Rename the placeholder crate name:
    ./scripts/rename-project.sh my_project
    cd .. && mv rust_template my_project && cd my_project
    
  3. Build whatever you actually came here for — replace greet in src/lib.rs, extend the CLI in src/main.rs, add your own tests and benchmarks.

Building and running

With Cargo (needs Rust installed, or run inside nix develop):

cargo run -- Zeke        # build + run, prints "Hello, Zeke!"
cargo build --release
cargo test                 # unit + integration tests
cargo bench                 # criterion benchmark

With Nix (no local Rust install needed):

nix develop              # dev shell with the pinned toolchain + tools
nix build                 # produces ./result/bin/rust_template
nix run -- Zeke             # build + run
nix flake check              # clippy, fmt, doc, audit, tests — all in one go
nix fmt                       # format Rust, Nix, and TOML files

See CLAUDE.md for more detail on the project layout and how the pieces fit together.
