In plain words
This tool generates syntax diagrams for Rust's macro_rules() macros. It converts macro definitions into visual representations that show the structure and patterns of macro inputs. The tool is designed for Rust developers who need to document or understand complex macros more clearly. It was created to help make macro syntax more accessible by transforming code-based definitions into graphical syntax diagrams.

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

The idea is there is a large class of line-of-business mobile apps, and the process of getting a simple form + button on a mobile device, in a native app,…
