Research direction

Start by reviewing the crate's current behavior and compare it with the linked configure and viper projects, especially their configuration-source capabilities. Document the project's agreed goals and non-goals, including which configuration sources and integrations are in scope; completion requires a clear, committed statement of boundaries.

Description

For a crate like this, I think it's super important to lay out goals and non-goals. Let's figure out what they are!

Some sources of inspiration for goals and non-goals:

  • configure which has a configuration source trait
  • viper (go): wide ranging, covers env vars and command line args, etcd and consul, and others
