# Crate of the Week
This week's crate is [overloadable](https://crates.io/crates/overloadable), a crate to provides you with the capabilities to overload your functions in a similar style to C# or C++, including support for meta attributes, type parameters and constraints, and visibility modifiers
Thanks to [Stevensonmt](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/crate-of-the-week/2704/585) for the suggestion!

# Quote of the Week
> Rust is 5 languages stacked on top of each other, except that instead of ending up like 5 children under a trenchcoat, they end up like the power rangers.
