# Rust Development Patterns
Idiomatic Rust patterns and best practices for building safe, performant, and maintainable applications.
## When to Use
- Writing new Rust code
- Reviewing Rust code
- Refactoring existing Rust code
- Designing crate structure and module layout
## How It Works
This skill enforces idiomatic Rust conventions across six key areas: ownership and borrowing to prevent data races at compile time, `Result`/`?` error propagation with `thiserror` for libraries and `anyhow` for applications, enums and exhaustive pattern matching to make illegal states unrepresentable, traits and generics for zero-cost abstraction, safe concurrency via `Arc<Mutex<T>>`, channels, and async/await, and minimal `pub` surfaces organized by domain.
