All retrievals, searches, and side-effects to the conversation tree are in O(1) constant time.\n\n# Sections\n\n- [Sections](#sections)\n- [Motivation](#motivation)\n- [State](#state)\n- [Using convo](#using-convo)\n- [Getting Started](#getting-started)\n  - [Terminology](#terminology)\n  - [Examples](#examples)\n  - [Formatting Rules](#formatting-rules)\n  - [Issues](#issues)\n- [Contributing](#contributing)\n  - [Help needed](#help-needed)\n- [License](#license)\n\n# Motivation\n\nThe intent is to safely import and export conversation trees, as well as walk complex conversations easily and efficiently. Conversations resemble a traditional dialogue tree model, and can be cyclic. YAML format makes creating dialogue trees intuitive and easy, even without a formal editor (but a GUI editor will come eventually).\n\n# State\n\n`convo` is usable and in active development. Future releases will follow [SemVer compatibility](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/semver.html).\n\n# Using convo\n\nThe easiest way to use convo is by adding the lone dependency to your `Cargo.toml` file:\n\n```toml\nconvo = \"0.1.2\"\n```\n\n# Getting Started\n\n## Terminology\n\n  * **Tree** - the parent container for a conversation tree.\n  * **Node** - a node in a conversation tree which acts as a fork of decisions by wrapping prompting dialogue and a list of path options (called `Link`s).\n  * **Link** - a uni-directional path to a [`Node`].\n\n## Examples\n\nCheck out these important examples:\n  * [Building a conversation `Tree` imperatively](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/blob/main/examples/building.rs)\n  * [Importing/Exporting `*.convo.yml` files](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/blob/main/examples/io.rs)\n  * [Walking a conversation `Tree`](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/blob/main/examples/walking.rs)\n\n## Formatting Rules\n\nFor specific rules and formatting information, please check [FORMATTING.md](FORMATTING.md)\n\n## Issues\n\nDon't hesitate to [file an issue](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/issues/new) or contact [@simbleau](https://github.com/simbleau) by [e-mail](mailto:spencer@imbleau.com) or [@ThomasHoutart](https://github.com/ThomasHoutart) by [e-mail](mailto:thomas.houtart98@gmail.com).\n\n# Contributing\n\nI encourage all contributions by pull request. Please check the [issues](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/issues) first if you'd like to help.\n\nThe [Rust code of conduct](https://www.rust-lang.org/policies/code-of-conduct) applies.\n\n## Help needed\n\n  * Create examples using the `serde-yaml` crate for serialization and deserialization.\n  * Create a GUI for editing and creating convo files.\n\n# License\n\nThis  project is dual-licensed under both [Apache 2.0](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/blob/main/LICENSE-APACHE) and [MIT](https://github.com/simbleau/convo/blob/main/LICENSE-MIT) licenses.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsimbleau%2Fconvo","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsimbleau%2Fconvo","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsimbleau%2Fconvo/lists"}
