While these aspirations can be at odds with fast build times and low binary 30 //! size, we will still strive to keep these reasonable for the flexibility you 31 //! get. Check out the 32 //! [argparse-benchmarks](https://github.com/rust-cli/argparse-benchmarks-rs) for 33 //! CLI parsers optimized for other use cases. 34 //! 35 //! ## Example 36 //! 37 //! Run 38 //! ```console 39 //! $ cargo add clap --features derive 40 //! ``` 41 //! *(See also [feature flag reference][_features])* 42 //! 43 //! Then define your CLI in `main.rs`: 44 #![cfg_attr(not(feature = "derive"), doc = " ```ignore")] 45 #![cfg_attr(feature = "derive", doc = " ```no_run")] 46 #![doc = include_str!("../examples/demo.rs")] 47 //! ``` 48 //! 49 //! And try it out: 50 #![doc = include_str!("../examples/demo.md")] 51 //! 52 //!
