## Purpose

This is a simple Rust library and binary for converting .FIT files to .GPX files.
A ***faster*** alternative to [fit2gpx](https://github.com/dodo-saba/fit2gpx)
A **_faster_** alternative to [fit2gpx](https://github.com/dodo-saba/fit2gpx)

- [FIT](https://developer.garmin.com/fit/overview/) is a GIS data file format used by Garmin GPS sport devices and Garmin software
- [GPX](https://docs.fileformat.com/gis/gpx/) is an XML based format for GPS tracks.

## Why another one

- cause it's about 80 times as fast
- cause it's fun
- it's about 80 times as fast (single file, no elevation added)
- it can add elevation data (though it isn't very precise)
- it's fun

## Why not this one

- it doesn't support strava bulk-export stuff

## Direct dependencies

- [coordinate-altitude](https://github.com/jeromeschmied/coordinate-altitude)
- [fit_file](https://crates.io/crates/fit_file)
- [gpx](https://crates.io/crates/gpx)
- [clap](https://crates.io/crates/clap)
