There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. -- Albert Einstein

This tool stands on the shoulders of giants. To work its magic, it runs the following commands:

rustc -Zinspect=hir, for retrieving the HIR. rustfmt, for formatting the output. prettyprint, for syntax-highlighting, which is just a wrapper around the awesome syntect and bat crates.
