@ -19,18 +19,18 @@ Trait solving is based around a few key ideas:
describes the precise form of rules we use, and
[lowering rules](./lowering-rules.html) gives the complete set of
lowering rules in a more reference-like form.
- [Lazy normalization](./associated-types.html), which is the
technique we use to accommodate associated types when figuring out
whether types are equal.
- [Region constraints](./regions.html), which are accumulated
during trait solving but mostly ignored. This means that trait
solving effectively ignores the precise regions involved, always
but we still remember the constraints on them so that those
constraints can be checked by the type checker.
- [Canonical queries](./canonical-queries.html), which allow us
to solve trait problems (like "is `Foo` implemented for the type
`Bar`?") once, and then apply that same result independently in many
different inference contexts.
- [Lazy normalization](./associated-types.html), which is the
technique we use to accommodate associated types when figuring out
whether types are equal.
- [Region constraints](./regions.html), which are accumulated
during trait solving but mostly ignored. This means that trait
solving effectively ignores the precise regions involved, always
