Typeables: Rust crate of type aliases

Typeables is a Rust crate of type aliases, intended to help improve source code clarity. This helps with literate programming, domain driven design, and developer knowledge.

Examples

Geolocation example:

let a: LatitudeDecimalDegreeF64 = 40.75;
let b: LongitudeDecimalDegreeF64 = 73.97;
let c: AltitudeMeanSeaLevelMeterF64 = 56.00;

Geolocation example of combining types:

type Point = (
    LatitudeDecimalDegreeF64,
    LongitudeDecimalDegreeF64,
    AltitudeMeanSeaLevelMeterF64
);

Purpose

The purpose of this crate is syntax sugar for better readabiliy.

The purpose of this library is not any kind type-based coding, such as data encapsulation, or parameter validation, or object oriented programming. If you want these kinds of aspects, we recommend looking at the crate uom (unit of measure) and the Rust book examples of the newtype pattern.

Implementation

The type aliases are all for Rust primitives and standards such as str and String.

The type aliases are zero-overhead because they are replaced at compile time.
