1 //! The _dirs-next_ crate is
2 //!
3 //! - a tiny library with a minimal API (16 functions)
4 //! - that provides the platform-specific, user-accessible locations
5 //! - for finding and storing configuration, cache and other data
6 //! - on Linux, Redox, Windows (≥ Vista) and macOS.
7 //!
8 //! The library provides the location of these directories by leveraging the mechanisms defined by
9 //!
10 //! - the [XDG base directory](https://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html) and the [XDG user directory](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-user-dirs/) specifications on Linux,
11 //! - the [Known Folder](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb776911(v=vs.85).aspx) system on Windows, and
12 //! - the [Standard Directories](https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/FileManagement/Conceptual/FileSystemProgrammingGuide/FileSystemOverview/FileSystemOverview.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40010672-CH2-SW6) on macOS.
