Follow any prompts it gives you to install Rust. Once thats done, Rust's standard tools should be setup and ready to use.
#### Additional Rust tools - `rustfmt`
To ensure a consistent codebase, install [`rustfmt`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt) via `rustup`.
This is not optional, as Travis CI is set up to check that code is compliant with this repos style guides.
```bash
rustup component add rustfmt
```
### Install Other Dependencies
On debian / ubuntu, the following command will install these dependencies :
```bash
sudo apt-get install build-essential portaudio19-dev
```
On Fedora systems, the following command will install these dependencies :
```bash
sudo dnf install portaudio-devel make gcc
```
On macOS, using homebrew :
```bash
brew install portaudio
```

### Development Extra Steps
If you are looking to carry out development on librespot:
```bash
rustup override set nightly
```
The command above overrides the default rust in the directory housing librespot to use the ```nightly``` version, as opposed to the ```stable``` version.
Then, run the command below to install [rustfmt](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rustfmt) for the ```nightly``` toolchain. This is not optional, as Travis CI is set up to check that code is compliant with rustfmt.
```bash
rustup component add rustfmt-preview

## Compiling & Running

There are also a number of compiler feature flags that you can add, in the event that you want to have certain additional features also compiled. The list of these is available on the [wiki](https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/wiki/Compiling#addition-features).

- Please include a clear description of what the issue is. Issues with descriptions such as It hangs after 40 minutes will be closed immediately.
- Please include, where possible, steps to reproduce the bug, along with any other material that is related to the bug. For example, if librespot consistently crashes when you try to play a song, please include the Spotify URI of that song. This can be immensely helpful in quickly pinpointing and resolving issues.
- Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, please include a backtrace where possible. Recent versions of librespot should produce these automatically when it crashes, and print them to the console, but in some cases, you may need to run export RUST_BACKTRACE=full before running librespot to enable backtraces.

In order to prepare for a PR, you will need to do a couple of things first:
Make any changes that you are going to make to the code, but do not commit yet.
Make sure you are using rust ```nightly``` to build librespot. Once this is confirmed, you will need to run the following command:
Make sure that the code is formatted by running:
```bash
cargo fmt --all

# librespot
*librespot* is an open source client library for Spotify. It enables
applications to use Spotify's service, without using the official but
closed-source libspotify. Additionally, it will provide extra features
