## Using the Whole Toolkit
Using the whole toolkit via the umbrella `gloo` crate lets you hit the ground
running, with everything at your fingertips. This is a good choice for people
making Web applications, or top-level crates that are compiled into Wasm
binaries.
### `Cargo.toml`
Add a `gloo` dependency to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
gloo = "0.3"
```
### `src/lib.rs`
Use various bits of `gloo` via its submodules, for example timers and intervals
are in `gloo::timers` and event listeners are in `gloo::events`:
```rust
use gloo::{timers, events};
// ...
```
## Using a Single Crate
Each crate in the Gloo toolkit can also be used independently from the rest of
the toolkit. This is a good choice for people making library crates that are
intended to be used by other people making Web applications or top-level crates
that are compiled into Wasm binaries.
### `Cargo.toml`
If we want to use only the Gloo functionality that wraps `setTimeout`, we can
add `gloo-timers` to our dependencies in `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
gloo-timers = "0.2"
```
### `src/lib.rs`
Next, import the functionality you need from the `gloo_timers` crate, and go to
town with it:
```rust
use gloo_timers::callback::Timeout;
// ...
```
