We use [`rustfmt`][rustfmt] to apply standard formatting to Rust code in the
repo and [`dprint`][dprint] to apply standing formatting to the Markdown source
and the non-Rust code in the project.

[rustfmt]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt
[dprint]: https://dprint.dev

You will normally have `rustfmt` installed if you have a Rust toolchain
installed; if for some reason you do not have a copy of `rustfmt`, you can add
it by running the following command:

```sh
rustup component add rustfmt
```

To install `dprint`, you can run the following command:

```sh
cargo install dprint
```

Or follow the [instructions][install-dprint] on the `dprint` website.

[install-dprint]: https://dprint.dev/install/

To format Rust code, you can run `rustfmt <path to file>`, and to format other
files, you can pass `dprint <path to file>`. Many text editors also have native
support or extensions for both `rustfmt` and `dprint`.
