$ start <path-or-url>
# Linux
$ xdg-open <path-or-url> || gio open <path-or-url> || gnome-open <path-or-url> || kde-open <path-or-url> || wslview <path-or-url>
Library Usage
Add this to your Cargo.toml
[dependencies]

Credits
The implementation is based on the respective functionality of Cargo, but was improved to allow some error handling.
