🧾 General guidelines

• Keep the project as dependency-free as possible.
• Prioritize simplicity and readability over cleverness.
• This project aims to stay dependency-free (within reason).
• Any pull request that adds an external crate will be rejected unless it's absolutely necessary and thoroughly justified.
• If you think a dependency is truly essential, open an issue first and explain the rational
• Avoid pulling in large changes without discussion first (open an issue or start a draft PR).

• Keep formatting consistent with rustfmt.
• Write comments where it helps understanding, especially for lower-level code or unsafe blocks.
