Partial implementation of Go standard library in Rust

Go language has a very good standard library: simple, extensive and well tested. It would be great to have something like that in Rust.

Usage examples

Usage examples can be found in src/bin folder. They can be run with cargo run --bin NAME command, for example:

cargo run --bin time

Partially implemented modules

• crypto::sha256
• encoding::binary
• encoding::hex
• hash
• math::bits
• time::time
  • limitations:
  • no time zone support
  • no duration support
  • no formatting support
  • no monothonic time support

Development process

When a piece of functionality is needed, appropriate Go source code is copied from go1.20.6 and translated to Rust. Structures and functions are renamed to meet Rust naming conventions.
