A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

from rust-lang.org

Rust by itself is a great language, but what really makes it shine are its many great crates. The ecosystem around rust is one of the best there is, and its documentation is practically unrivalled. So lets look at some of those crates!

actix-web

Actix-web is an amazing web server framework for rust. It’s modular, easy to use, intuitive and fast. It’s also what lemmy is built on! So when you use this very site, you are using something build with actix!

Bevy

Bevy is a code first game engine for rust, based on the ECS paradigm. It’s incredibly refreshing and different from most other engines. It is also unbelievably modular, in fact, just about every part of the engine cam be removed or added as you please! If you are every looking for something simple to play around, try bevy!

Tokio

The backbone of most asynchronous rust. It provides everything needed to build reliable, fast web applications!

Serde

Serde is the go-to library for serialization and deserialisation in rust. Its derive macros make it a breeze to use, and there are countless crates supporting various formats with Serde!

SQLx

SQLx is an amazingly simple sql handling crate. It is both feature rich and yet simple, and just a joy to use!

Reqwest

A neat little crate for sending http(s) requests! It’s also used in Lemmy, and just about anywhere else where someone needs to do get some thing from an http(s) endpoint!

And this is far from all! Rust is a lovely language, with an even more amazing ecosystem!

Have an amazing week, everyone!

    I love oversized hoodie. sickubus
    I don’t, however, love when I can’t pull up the sleeves and keep them up ever to do the dishes or whatever.

    One of the major classic meditation objects is the ‘foulness of the body.’ I wonder how many monks would have been trans. Or autistic? Allistics don’t seem to understand how gross all humans are. Idk.

    celebrity bullshit, junk mention, thirst

    Saw that there’s a whole thing about Justin Timberlake’s bulge?? Cis ppl are weird

    People are making fun of him and I don’t really care for his music but I thought he looked hot in the pics ppl are mocking?

    Normalize small junk being hot imho, petite meat is cool and good and a lil’ bulge is sexy if ppl wanna do that

    Well, it looks like I get to have my friends again, at least for the next month. Going to be interesting to see how I act and feel around them, a lot has changed since I saw them last.

    I have no idea how to talk to cis people

    My (cis) guy friend has brought up me being trans a couple times (I guess to show support? That he remembers and thinks of me that way?) and I just have no idea what to say or do about the topic. I don’t really have anything “real” going on (like starting hrt or anything) to talk about, most of my thoughts are just dysphoria and like, do I really want to complain to him about that. I don’t know, its just new and I have a terrible time with new situations. Maybe I just joke around about it… but how do I do that…

    Also my nickname is based on my dead name and I don’t know what to do about that. Asking for him to call me my girl name seems awkward and I don’t like the thought of that.

    I don’t know why I’m posting but creature I have a hard time with new things. god this process is going to be hard isn’t it…

    queer embarrassing weeb shit

    been on a JoJo kick lately

    put a cable station chain on my coat epaulette and hit the Jotaro pose in the mirror alone

    been thinking of what my stand would be lol

    Joseph and Jolene are my favorites but I love Jotaro too your-next-line-is

    I like the idea of “Lavender Haze” (Vildhjarta, not Tswift, but the mashup is funny) as a combo of Hermit Purple and Stone Free

    I like Crazy Diamond’s healing ability too

    IDK I’m on my gymrat shit and I’m gonna learn how to double jump irl and dunk a basketball and it’ll be sick
