The generated pages typically contain a brief summary, a detailed description, usage examples, and sections listing implemented traits and associated methods.

Rust API documentation is an automatically generated guide that explains how to use your code. It lists what each function does, shows examples of how to call it, and details what other features it supports. Think of it as a user manual that updates itself whenever you change your code.
