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!

it's been too long since i've seen Fucking Trans Women mentioned so imma talk about it
horny (obviously)
it's taken three revisits to actually finish the zine, the first time was very early in transition and scared me off a little bit. i had a bit of a juvenile "ew sex ed" reaction when all the anatomy was being discussed but it was incredibly helpful. thank you Mira Bellwether for teaching me about my removed, for talking positively about soft penises, for discussing sex in ways that i've never thought of. it was life-changing information to receive and i'm so glad i read it when someone linked it here previouslywell last time i stopped around page 36, thinking that there would be so many more intense, crazy, uncomfortable topics to go. but the remainder is mostly focused on the more emotional aspects? the section on Touch hit me pretty hard, i think that's something i might be missing? i really like my new (ty estrogen) squishy bits and maybe i need to ask for them to be touched more
however, my favourite part from the latter half was this:
omg Mira
that is all, thanks for reading ✧˖°
