-## `log` crate
+## `log`
+
+https://crates.io/crates/log
 
 > Usage:  
 > The basic use of the log crate is through the five logging macros: `error!`, `warn!`, `info!`, `debug!` and `trace!` where `error!` represents the highest-priority log messages and trace! the lowest. The log messages are filtered by configuring the log level to exclude messages with a lower priority. Each of these macros accept format strings similarly to println!.
+
+## `anyhow`
+
+https://crates.io/crates/anyhow
+
+> Usage:  
+> This library provides anyhow::Error, a trait object based error type for easy idiomatic error handling in Rust applications.
+
+Example: 
+```rust
+use anyhow::Context;
+
+fn test() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
+    // watch out for the question mark operator
+
+    let file = std::fs::File::create("test.txt").context("Failed to create test file")?;
+
+    file.set_len(1234).context("Failed to set file length")?;
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+If this fails the result is a fancy error message:
+```
+Error: Failed to create test file
+
+Caused by:
+    File exists (os error 17)
+```
