The "ideal guide" for writing CLI apps in Rust #6

Description

@killercup

In the first meeting, we discussed how to decide what to work on. One approach is writing an "ideal guide".

The basic idea is to write guides about how to write a CLI app in Rust, but not by describing how it works right now, but how we imagine it should work some time in the future.

    @vitiral mentioned that the cookbook might be a good inspiration.

    A concrete example for guides centered around writing CLI apps are the quicli docs.

    One of the current goals of ergo is to rewrite the cookbook with zero non-ergo dependencies. I think this will be a useful exercise to see the scope of a crate like ergo. I'm thinking we could take a similar approach here.

    Aim of this issue:
    @killercup :

    it should be a guide that introduces new users to rust while showing how frictionless writing a cli is and what rust has to offer

    Since no work has started on this, let's close this and let its idea be reborn in other issues!
