# Threads for Humans (DEPRECATED)

**NOTE**: this library is now deprecated and won't be updated much (not like it was until now ...).

A rust library built on top of [`std::thread`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/thread/)
to provide additional features and tools to make development easier and to support operators.

Threads are a complex beast.
Rust does a great job at providing an efficient, cross-platform, support for essential operations.
But larger and more complex projects need a bit more.

The `humthreads` library provides the following additional features:

* Signal threads they should shutdown.
* Join threads with timeouts instead of blocking forever if a thread is not done.
* Introspection API to aid debugging and monitoring multi-threaded processes.

To help us get there we decided to adopt the [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](https://www.contributor-covenant.org/)

Unfortunately, as the community lucks members, we are unable to provide a second contact to report incidents to.  
We would still encourage people to report issues, even anonymously.
