= About =

The  overlay is a prototype experiment for building crates as individual crate units.

This overlay handles each crate similarly to how non-binary programming languages like Perl, Python and Ruby work, by installing (possibly augmented) copies of the extracted crate archives, constructing a local directory registry source as described in | source replacement in the cargo book, while deferring actual binary compilation to the relevant target leaves, leveraging slot-operator deps for automatic rebuilds.

But its currently a very complicated mountain of work and not quite ready for prime-time.
