mime

36.0M downloads in the last 30 days (1.2M/day). Volume is roughly flat compared to the previous period.

30.0K crates depend on mime — it's part of the Rust ecosystem's core infrastructure. Removing it from your dependency tree would be extremely difficult.

mime has only 1 owner despite 30.0K dependents. This is a bus-factor concern — consider the implications for long-term support.

Despite being 11+ years old, mime hasn't reached 1.0 yet. Expect potential API changes between versions.

mime has no external dependencies — minimal supply chain risk and fast compile times.

At 15KB, mime is lightweight. Small crate size correlates with focused, well-scoped functionality.

Notable dependents include reqwest, axum, axum-core, tower-http, serde_with. When high-quality crates choose mime, it's a strong quality signal.
