[![Package](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/clientele)](https://crates.io/crates/clientele)

**Clientele** makes it easy to write superb command-line utilities in Rust that
follow consistent best practices on all target platforms including Linux, macOS,
and Windows. It packages and re-exports [`clap`], [`camino`], [`dotenvy`],
[`argfile`], and [`wild`] into a single easy dependency.

## ✨ Features

- Showcases how to structure a CLI program in Rust (see the [examples](#-examples)).
- Loads environment variables from `.env` files (using the [`dotenvy`] crate).
- Expands wildcards (globs) on Windows (using the [`wild`] crate).
- Expands @argfiles similarly to [`javac`] or Python (using the [`argfile`] crate).
- Defines a standard set of essential CLI options (using the [`clap`] crate).
- Provides the [`Utf8Path`] and [`Utf8PathBuf`] types (using the [`camino`] crate).
- Supports opting out of any feature using comprehensive feature flags.
- Adheres to the Rust API Guidelines in its [naming conventions].
- 100% free and unencumbered public domain software.
