What this scraper does

Discover dev-tool companies and engineering teams publishing Rust packages on crates.io. Extracts crate name, description, homepage, repository, download stats, owner profiles, and metadata — ideal for targeting Rust-focused SaaS vendors, open-source maintainers, and developer-tool companies.

category	Filter by crates.io category slug (e.g. 'web-programming', 'network-programming', 'database', 'cryptography', 'command-line-utilities'). Lea
sortBy	How to sort results from crates.io.
maxResults	Maximum number of crates to return (up to 500).
