# ic-cdk-macros

This crate contains a collection of procedural macros that are utilized within the `ic-cdk` crate.

The macros are re-exported in `ic-cdk`, and you can find their documentation [there](https://docs.rs/ic-cdk/latest/ic_cdk).

The macros fall into two categories:

* To register functions as canister entry points
* To export Candid definitions
