Welcome to the OpenTelemetry Rust documentation. This section introduces
how to use OpenTelemetry with Rust to generate and collect telemetry data
such as metrics, logs, and traces using the OpenTelemetry API and SDKs.

These pages are intended to help you get started and understand the current
capabilities and status of OpenTelemetry Rust.

## Status and Releases

The current status of the major functional components for OpenTelemetry
Rust is as follows:

| Traces              | Metrics              | Logs              |
