Ubiquitous Rust Crates

once-cell - Single assignment cells and lazy values.
lazy_static - A macro for declaring lazily evaluated statics. Allows to have statics that require code to be executed at runtime in order to be initialized.
num - Collection of numeric types and traits. Includes big integers, rationals and complex numbers.
log - Lightweight logging facade. Provides a single API that abstract the actual logging implementation (error, warn, info, debug, trace macros).
bindgen - Automatically generates FFI bindings to C (and some C++) libraries.
clap - Command line argument parser when writing console/terminal applications.
regex - Library for parsing, compiling and executing regular expressions.
tracing - Framework for instrumenting programs to collect structured, event-based diagnostic information.

anyhow - A trait object based error type for easy idiomatic error handling.
thiserror - Provides a convenient derive macro for standard library Error trait.

serde - Framework for serializing and deserializing data structures efficiently and generically.

crossbeam - Tools for concurrent programming
rayon - Data-parallelism library for Rust. Makes easy to convert a sequential computation into a parallel one. Provides parallel iterators. Balances work between tasks using a thread pool.

futures - Abstractions for asnchronous programming. A sort of gate for std stuff related to futures.
async-std - Asynchronous version of std. Provides both executor and reactors.
tokio - Runtime for writing asynchronous applications. Provides bot executor and reactors.
pin_project - Safe and ergonomic pin-projection (to turn Pin<&mut Struct> into Pin<&mut Struct::field>).

fnf - The FNV hash function is a custom Hasher implementation that is more efficient for smaller hash keys.
