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 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 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!
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!
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!

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 I have a hard time with new things. god this process is going to be hard isn't it...
You being trans is real though I dunno what I'd say to a cis guy about gender either at that point, honestly. It's kinda weird, but depending on how good you feel about him you actually could just talk dysphoria and stuff, since he brought it up?
