Rust's "Cargo" has a feature named "Features" and a feature named "Examples" and there is a feature where an Example can use a Feature and this is incredibly, incredibly hard to google for. So far I've got as far as finding examples of Features, but not as far as finding examples of Features of Examples.

@GreenSkyOverMe they seem like such well named features, so intuitive, until you have to write a search query or a sentence about them

@mcc can you elaborate on "examples can use a feature?"

@onelson @mcc cargo's features are the Rust equivalent of "cc -DMY_EXTRA_FUNCTIONALITY".

Cargo also provides a built-in mechanism to run code examples for your library (called, "examples" :P).

These can be combined, so that a code example requires a cargo feature to be enabled if you want to compile/run that example.
