A SmolStr is a string type that has the following properties:
size_of::<SmolStr>() == 24 (therefore == size_of::<String>() on 64 bit platforms)Clone is O(1)WS (see src/lib.rs). Such strings consist solely of consecutive newlines, followed by consecutive spacesSmolStr can be explicitly created from a &'static str without allocationUnlike String, however, SmolStr is immutable. The primary use case for SmolStr is a good enough default storage for tokens of typical programming languages. Strings consisting of a series of newlines, followed by a series of whitespace are a typical pattern in computer programs because of indentation. Note that a specialized interner might be a better solution for some use cases.
Minimal Supported Rust Version: latest stable.
Bumping MSRV is not considered a semver-breaking change.
