I made a stopwatch crate for Rust. This exists because I added an existing stopwatch crate to a project and my cargo.lock had a bunch of unnecessary new entries due to dependencies so I wrote one in pure Rust.

I will not be posting it on crates.io for several reasons:

• Name collision with stopwatch
• Supply chain attacks are a thing and people need to stop relying on centralised distribution
• Git is always up-to-date, and you can choose a version from a commit hash

Usage is simple

let mut stopwatch = Stopwatch::new();

stopwatch.start();

// Do a long running task
std::thread::sleep(Duration::from_secs(5));

stopwatch.stop();

println!("Operation complete in: {}", stopwatch);

Source and complete instructions are available in the git repository

Surprisingly enough (even to me), the license is CC0.

Email me with any bugs. :)
