Rust grammar for [tree-sitter](https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter).

## Features

- **Speed** — When initially parsing a file, `tree-sitter-rust` takes around two to three times
as long as rustc's hand-written parser.

```sh
$ wc -l examples/ast.rs
2157 examples/ast.rs

$ rustc -Z unpretty=ast-tree -Z time-passes examples/ast.rs | head -n0
time: 0.002; rss: 55MB -> 60MB ( +5MB) parse_crate

$ tree-sitter parse examples/ast.rs --quiet --time
examples/ast.rs 6.48 ms 9908 bytes/ms
```

But if you _edit_ the file after parsing it, tree-sitter can generally _update_
the previous existing syntax tree to reflect your edit in less than a millisecond,
thanks to its incremental parsing system.
