macros

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides comprehensive guidance and examples for developing robust Rust macros, including declarative, procedural, and derive macros, enabling advanced code generation and metaprogramming.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Declarative Macros: Learn to create simple, pattern-matching macros using macro_rules!.
• Procedural Macros: Understand how to write token-stream manipulating macros for more complex code generation.
• Derive Macros: Implement custom derive macros to automatically generate trait implementations.
• Use Case: When building a complex data structure, use a derive macro to automatically implement Debug, Clone, or custom serialization traits, saving significant boilerplate code.

Quick Start

Use the macros skill to generate a basic derive macro for a custom struct.
