# ODCS Rust Implementation Starter Pack
This guide set supports building the Rust reference implementation of the Open Data Contract Standard (ODCS).
See the canonical documentation index at [`docs/README.md`](../README.md).
Treat [SPEC.md](../../SPEC.md) as the authoritative upstream policy. The normative ODCS specification lives in the [upstream repository](https://github.com/bitol-io/open-data-contract-standard).
The first implementation goal is:
```text
parse -> Canonical Object Model -> validate -> diagnostics
```
Do not implement execution, pipelines, or transformation semantics yet.
