Adding `inspect_type` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add --dev inspect_type

to add it a dev dependency (if it's used only in tests, not in the final product). To add it as a regular run-time dependency, run:

cargo add inspect_type

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

inspect_type = "0.16.0"

The inspect_type library will be automatically available globally. Read the inspect_type library documentation.
