# Deserialize `Cargo.toml`
This is a definition of fields in `Cargo.toml` files for [serde](https://serde.rs). It allows reading of `Cargo.toml` data, and serializing it using TOML or other formats. It's used by [lib.rs](https://lib.rs) [project](https://gitlab.com/crates.rs/crates.rs) to extract information about crates.
To get started, see [`Manifest::from_slice`][docs].

Additionally, this crate supports basic post-processing of the data to emulate Cargo's `autobins` feature, which sets manifest defaults based on presence of files on disk (other non-disk data sources are also supported).
