Why?

This project was inspired by the multitude of "thanks" projects out there. It's the first program I wrote in Rust (except from the classic Hello World), so doing this was a learning experience. I always thought you learn best by doing. Except for getting familiar with the language and tooling, I wanted this project to be yet another tool that makes the Rust community feel as awesome and friendly as it does.
