Description

A command-line app written in RUST for experimenting with Simplex, UR, and CBOR concepts.

We need a tool to make this sort of thing easier:

https://github.com/BlockchainCommons/crypto-commons/blob/master/Docs/crypto-request-test-vectors.md#appendix-standard-process-for-creating-test-vectors

To do this both directions, making and reading test vectors.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked HackMD document and the crypto-request-test-vectors.md appendix describing the standard process for creating test vectors. Define the command-line tool's scope around experimenting with Simplex, UR, and CBOR, then determine how it should create and read vectors in both directions. Done means the reference app supports both workflows.
