The primary +purpose of this crate is to serve as the default allocator for Rust on the +`wasm32-unknown-unknown` target. At the time this was written the wasm target +didn't support C code, so it was required to have a Rust-only solution. + +This allocator is not the most performant by a longshot. It is primarily, I +think, intended for being easy to port and easy to learn. I didn't dive too deep +into the implementation when writing it, it's just a straight port of the C +version. + +It's unlikely that Rust code needs to worry/interact with this allocator in +general. Most of the time you'll be manually switching to a different allocator +:) + +# License + +This project is licensed under either of + + * Apache License, Version 2.0, ([LICENSE-APACHE](LICENSE-APACHE) or + http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) + * MIT license ([LICENSE-MIT](LICENSE-MIT) or + http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) + +at your option. + +### Contribution + +Unless you explicitly state otherwise, any contribution intentionally submitted +for inclusion in this project by you, as defined in the Apache-2.0 license, +shall be dual licensed as above, without any additional terms or conditions. |
