Unable to import a module (struct) from the same folder

I have 2 files: lib.rs and user.rs

user.rs:

struct User { .... }

and lib.rs:

use User; //  unresolved import `User`

Whatever I tried it hasn't panned out, for example:

use self::User; //  unresolved import `User`
use super::User;

You need to declare the user module in lib.rs first, and then import the structure from it:

mod user;

use user::User;

It is important that user in mod user coincide with user in user.rs file name.

Rust module system can be confusing for novices in the language; you really should read the official documentation on this.
