# Embedded Unit Converter
Embed a small bit of code that converts between units of measure, e.g. Fahrenheit to Celsius.
An example of a Rust library that is embeddable in Python and Web Assembly.
## Getting setup
Insure the following dependencies are in place:
* Rust v1.32+ (nightly)
* Install using `rustup toolchain install nightly`
* Set default toolchain `rustup default nightly`
* Python 3 Development headers (python3-dev in Ubuntu)
* pipenv `pip install --user pipenv`
## Running the Python example
1. Build the rust crate first: `cargo build`
1. Create the Python package with: `pyo3 develop`
1. Run the tests: `pytest test.py`
