Looking for quick help or answers? Please see the troubleshooting page.


Once you’ve got a high-level idea of what SNAFU can do by looking at the quick example and some more examples, take a peek at our design philosophy.

For more advanced usage, take a deeper dive into what the Snafu macro generates, how to create opaque error types, how to create error structs, and how to use generic types and lifetimes.

For optional features of the crate, see our list of feature flags.

If you are targeting an older release of Rust, you will be interested in the compatibility section.

For upgrading from a previous version, review the upgrading guide.
