 ## Development workflows
 
+Here we would like to understand what kinds of workflows you use when compiling Rust code. If you work on multiple projects with diverse workflows, please primarily focus on use-case(s) where you most struggle with compilation performance.

+Please provide an answer for the Rust project where you most struggle with compilation times. Only include the lines of Rust code of your project, not of its dependencies. You can count the lines of code e.g. using [tokei](https://github.com/XAMPPRocky/tokei).
