# re_types_builder
Part of the [`rerun`](https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun) family of crates.

This crate implements Rerun's code generation tools.
These tools translate language-agnostic IDL definitions (flatbuffers) into code.
You can generate the code with `pixi run codegen`.
### Doclinks
The `.fbs` files can contain docstring (`///`) which in turn can contain doclinks.
They are to be written on the form `[archetypes.Image]`.
Only links to types are currently supported.
Link checking is not done by the codegen, but the output is checked implicitly by `cargo doc`, `lychee` etc.
We only support doclinks to the default `rerun.scope`.
