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!

    transphobia, parents

    My mom found out I’m taking DIY HRT and confronted me about it. I defended myself while she kept saying how it was dangerous because there’s no oversight. She also brought up hormonal changes like getting a temper, bringing up how I already always had a temper and that this would make it worse. I mentioned that I think that I will have less of a temper because I’ll have less gender dysphoria. I also said this would be the same on official hormones, which she is not against, and she agreed with me. After a while I started crying and kept crying. Luckily she feels like she can’t decide for me even if she’s against it, so she lets me keep it. But the thing is, that she forcing me to tell my dad since she doesn’t want to keep a secret from her husband. He’s supportive but anti-DIY as well. I’m afraid that maybe he will try to take it away so I need to figure out how to hide in the worst case scenario.

    This bullshit is exactly why I was hiding it from them in the first place. I was thinking of telling them but this shows me exactly that I made the right decision keeping this from them. I shouldn’t have put my hormones in my toilet bag, which I will take to vacation. She found out because she wanted to see if I still had anti- cat allergy pills for this vacation.
