Ever wanted to install Rust but only have access to npm? Well, now you can!
Just run npm install rust to get a full Rust toolchain.
This uses nightly by default, but if you want a stable toolchain, use npm install rust@stable.
By default, this package will not install the toolchain if it already exists. This is to avoid
accidentally overriding the existing toolchain, and to avoid installing an entire toolchain into your
node_modules folder unnecessarily.
To override this behavior, you can set the RUST_INSTALL_MODE environment variable to skip, if you wish
to always skip the installation, or to force, if you wish to always install the toolchain.
