I created a vector type to operate vectors and some vector operations work exactly with color operations, for example multiplication by a scalar, while others such as normalize do not make sense in a color. How could I use certain vector features in color without having to rewrite the same code manually? vector and color types need to be distinct, the solution of using vector as an alias for color is not suitable here.
Thanks!

Usually such code is duplicated. It can be implemented using macro_rules to save you copypasting.
For some things you could use a trait with a default implementation, but traits' default impls can't access struct fields, which requires more trait methods…

You could have private standalone functions implementing the common parts and then forward the public impl struct or impl trait functions to those.
