🧠 How It Works

nub coordinates its core functionality through a modular Rust pipeline. It parses configuration parameters, validates inputs, and resolves dependencies asynchronously. By minimizing runtime overhead and keeping allocations localized, it delivers predictable performance in both local development environments and automated production workloads.

🎯 Production Use Cases

Production System Integration

Embed nub into Rust backend services to handle core application logic.

CI/CD Automated Pipelines

Run automated validation, builds, and integration suites during deployments.

Developer Tooling & Workflows

Accelerate developer onboarding with pre-configured project utilities.

Open Source Extension

Fork and customize internal modules under the repository's open MIT license.

🚀 Getting Started

1

Install nub using your package manager: `cargo install nub`

2

Initialize your project workspace or configuration file for nub.

3

Import nub into your codebase or invoke it directly from your terminal.

4

Execute your test suite or run `nub --help` to verify successful setup.
