//! NATS client
//!
//! [`NatsClient`] provided here is a wrapper around [`Client`] that provides convenient methods
//! using domain-specific traits.
//!
//! Before reading code, make sure to familiarize yourself with NATS documentation, especially with
//! [subjects](https://docs.nats.io/nats-concepts/subjects) and
//! [Core NATS](https://docs.nats.io/nats-concepts/core-nats) features.
//!
//! Abstractions provided here cover a few use cases:
//! * request/response (for example piece request)
//! * request/stream of responses (for example a stream of plotted sectors of the farmer)
//! * notifications (typically targeting a particular instance of an app) and corresponding subscriptions (for example solution notification)
//! * broadcasts and corresponding subscriptions (for example slot info broadcast)
