chloro is a minimal Rust code formatter.
## Motivation
For when you want to format two source files in a consistent way, as fast as possible.
## How it works
Using [rowan][rowan] from the rust-analyzer project, which can give both green and red trees.
The latter are notoriously expensive, but a formatter should only need the former.
Proof of concept library/CLI to explore a fast and low memory code formatter [WIP],
with use cases of code diffing in mind.

## Rustfmt Conformance
Diff 'leaderboard' for how well formatting with chloro matches rustfmt,
as tested on rust-analyzer's [crates][ra-crates]:
