hi-doc

Diagnostic formatting library.

Motivation

Most diagnostic formatting libraries implement both formatting and span/source management simultaneously. This can be beneficial for consistency, but it requires tying the code of your library to a third-party annotation library, which can be inconvenient, especially when your library already has its own logic for diagnostics.

hi-doc solely implements diagnostic formatting, allowing for seamless integration with existing diagnostic logic within a library.
