# cargo

> Manage Rust projects and their module dependencies (crates).
> Some subcommands such as `build` have their own usage documentation.
> More information: <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo>.

- Search for crates:

`cargo search {{search_string}}`

- Install a binary crate:

`cargo install {{crate_name}}`

- List installed binary crates:

`cargo install --list`

- Create a new binary or library Rust project in the specified directory (or the current working directory by default):

`cargo init --{{bin|lib}} {{path/to/directory}}`

- Add a dependency to `Cargo.toml` in the current directory:

`cargo add {{dependency}}`

- Build the Rust project in the current directory using the release profile:

`cargo build --release`

- Build the Rust project in the current directory using the nightly compiler (requires `rustup`):

`cargo +nightly build`

- Build using a specific number of threads (default is the number of logical CPUs):

`cargo build --jobs {{number_of_threads}}`
