+### What it does
+Checks for fields in struct literals where shorthands
+could be used.
+
+### Why is this bad?
+If the field and variable names are the same,
+the field name is redundant.
+
+### Example
+```
+let bar: u8 = 123;
+
+struct Foo {
+ bar: u8,
+}
+
+let foo = Foo { bar: bar };
+```
+the last line can be simplified to
+```
+let foo = Foo { bar };
+``` \ No newline at end of file
