This repository is a structured workshop for learning to write Rust procedural macros. It contains five project skeletons covering derive macros (Builder, CustomDebug), function-like macros (seq!), attribute macros (#[sorted], #[bitfield]). Each project includes incremental test cases using the trybuild test harness, guiding learners from basic parsing to advanced code generation and error reporting. The actual macro implementations are stubs (unimplemented!()), so the repository serves as a starting template for hands-on learning rather than a functional codebase. The architecture demonstrates best practices for organizing proc-macro projects, including separation of proc-macro and library crates in the bitfield project. The codebase is intentionally incomplete, intended for educational use.
