## Version Update Information

- The current latest version is `v2.3.1`. Major updates include:
  - The `Safe Mode` option has been added to `Switch` and `MessageBox`. Once enabled, it will detect whether most resources exist and promptly remind users.

---

## Introduction

- `Rust Constructor` is a Rust GUI development library built on egui, including common features such as timers, resource storage, and error handling.
- `Rust Constructor` released its first version in `2025.2`, and today's `Rust Constructor` has undergone earth-shattering changes compared to that time.

---

## Quick Start

- To introduce `Rust Constructor`, please add `rust_constructor = "x.y.z"` (please replace xyz as needed) to your `toml`.
- If you want to start `App` and perform some simple operations, it is recommended to refer to the [official egui documentation]https://github.com/emilk/egui.
- Due to the large content and complex operations of `Rust Constructor`, it is inconvenient to fully describe here. You can refer to the official tutorial of `Rust Constructor` [Rust Constructor Guide]https://github.com/ChepleBob30/Rust-Constructor-Guide.

---

## Purpose of Creating Rust Constructor

We encountered some problems that `egui` could not solve during the development of [Targeted Vector](https://github.com/ChepleBob30/Targeted-Vector), so we expanded many tools. To enable more people to develop conveniently, we created `Rust Constructor`.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- Q1: Which platforms does `Rust Constructor` support?

- A1: `macOS` and `Windows` are confirmed to be fully supported, other platforms depend on `egui` support.

- Q2: What are the differences between `Rust Constructor V2` and `V1`?

- A2: The original architecture was modified to conform to the `crate` structure, published on [crates.io]https://crates.io/, and added an official guide.

- Q3: Why do I get errors when calling resources?

- A3: Please ensure you have added the resources through the `add` method and there are no spelling errors.

- Q4: How to modify resources?

- A4: You can retrieve resources via `get_resource_mut`.

- Q5: What should I do if I encounter unknown error messages?

- A5: First check the `RustConstructorError` definition in the `Rust Constructor` source code, find the problem you triggered and fix it.

- Q6: Why is only `V2` of `Rust Constructor` on `crates.io`?

- A6: `Rust Constructor V0` and `Rust Constructor V1` were essentially bloated projects with many redundant features and meaningless code, so they were not published.
