Local Development
-----------------
cargo build
cargo test
cargo bench
When submitting a PR please use [`cargo fmt`][] (nightly).
Learn the FTL syntax
--------------------
FTL is a localization file format used for describing translation resources.
FTL stands for _Fluent Translation List_.
FTL is designed to be simple to read, but at the same time allows to represent
complex concepts from natural languages like gender, plurals, conjugations, and
others.
hello-user = Hello, { $username }!
[Read the Fluent Syntax Guide][] in order to learn more about the syntax. If
you're a tool author you may be interested in the formal [EBNF grammar][].
