a binary or a library (and even which type of library), and the `crate_name`
attribute can be used to set the name of the crate.

However, it is important to note that both the `crate_type` and `crate_name`
attributes have **no** effect whatsoever when using Cargo, the Rust package
manager. Since Cargo is used for the majority of Rust projects, this means
real-world uses of `crate-type` and `crate_name` are relatively limited.

```rust,editable
// This crate is a library
#![crate_type = "lib"]
