derive-deftly 1.0 is released.

derive-deftly is a template-based derive-macro facility for Rust. It has been a great success. Your codebase may benefit from it too!

Rust programmers will appreciate its power, flexibility, and consistency, compared to macro_rules; and its convenience and simplicity, compared to proc macros.

Programmers coming to Rust from scripting languages will appreciate derive-deftly’s convenient automatic code generation, which works as a kind of compile-time introspection.

• Rust’s two main macro systems
  • macro_rules!
  • proc macros
• derive-deftly to the rescue
  • Example
  • Special-purpose derive macros are now worthwhile!
• Stability without stagnation
