Yet Another Daemonizer is a daemonizing crate to easily, simply, and correctly create legacy daemons.
This crate focuses on manually creating a background process which is not managed by a supervisor such as systemd or launchd. It strives to follow all the best practices to correctly daemonize a process.

{
Ok(_) => println!("I'm a daemon"),
Err(err) => eprintln!("Failed to lauch daemon: {}", err),
