My template for solving the advent-of-code puzzles with rust.

How to get the most out of this template

Preparation

1. Install just
2. Log-in on https://adventofcode.com/
3. Inspect your cookies and copy content of the AOC_SESSION cookie
4. Export an AOC_SESSION environment variable with the content of the AOC_COOKIE
5. Update the year variable in the justfile to the year you would like to solve

Each day

(replace $DAY by the current day of the month)

1. get your personal puzzle input with just get-input $DAY
2. start the tests with just watch $DAY" (it'll automatically rerun the tests when the source change)
3. Write your tests and solve the puzzle in src/day$DAY/mod.rs
4. Once you think you're done, enable the input test case and watch it fail. The failure message contains your puzzle answer.
5. If your answer is correct, write it as the expected value for that test. (so that all the tests pass)
6. Refactor as you please
