How to contribute to a Rust project
Use `cargo build` and `cargo test`. `cargo clippy` and `cargo fmt` catch most style and lint problems before review.
- Run `cargo clippy` and `cargo fmt` — they catch most review comments preemptively.
- Read the borrow-checker errors carefully; they usually describe the exact fix.
- Look for issues labelled `E-easy` or `E-mentor` for guided first contributions.
