## Crate of the Week

<!-- COTW goes here -->
This week's crate is [flac-coded](https://crates.io/crates/flac-codec), an implementation of (unsurprisingly) the Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) file format.

Thanks to [tuffy](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/crate-of-the-week/2704/1449) for the self-suggestion!

[Please submit your suggestions and votes for next week][submit_crate]!

# Quote of the Week

<!-- QOTW goes here -->
> You might be asking: why did you rewrite \[...\] in Rust? And yeah, I don’t really have a good reason. It’s a hobby project. Like gardening, but with more segfaults.
