The rust compiler is pretty brutal so not much has to go in here.

* Change the default check command in VSCode (instead of check use <code>clippy</code>)
* 4 spaces for tabs
* Macros are cool but don’t overuse them.

== Use rust analyzer + clippy ==

Rust analyzer is great and has a bunch of recommendations which you should follow, so set this up and use it.

== Use rustfmt ==

This just standardises the code format.
