Dix\nis heavily inspired by this and basically just a \"Rewrite it in Rust\" version of\nnvd, with a few things like version diffing done better.\n\nFurthermore, many thanks to the amazing people who made this projects possible\nby contributing code and offering advice:\n\n- [@Dragyx](https://github.com/Dragyx) - Cool SQL queries. Much of dix's speed\n  is thanks to him.\n- [@NotAShelf](https://github.com/NotAShelf) - Implementing proper error\n  handling.\n- [@RGBCube](https://github.com/RGBCube) - Giving the codebase a deep scrub.\n\n## License\n\nDix is licensed under [GPLv3](LICENSE.md).
