awesome-rust VS MeiliSearch

It can be tricky to find learning resources that is perfectly tailored to the exact point we’re you’re standing right now. Especially if you already have prior experience.

But since you’re already familiar with programming, perhaps just dive right in…?

I.e. start a new project in Rust. You could do something like Advent of Code, Project Euler or Cryptopals[0]. Or write a simple webserver or whatever you feel like.

Don’t forget that ChatGPT can be quite useful for stuff like this. You can use it like a mentor. Just ask it anything you want to, make it show you examples (and then more examples) and so on. The answers might not be correct all of the time, but at least it can give you an idea of what docs to read next.

If you’re looking for blog posts, an acquaintance of mine has written some: https://priver.dev/tags/rust/

For more links to code/learning resources, see https://github.com/rust-unofficial/awesome-rust

And if you get stuck you also have the official Rust chats on Zulip/Discord.

HTH. Best of luck!

I did find the official https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ quite useful, it's more than enough to understand the language itself. Command-line programing is not a complicated thing, basically you have the CLI arguments, environment variables, stdin-stdout-sterr and nothing else. A few crates to start with: clap, dotenv, config, log4rs. Just go the crate documentation, there are many good examples there, no other book is neccessary. If you have a specific problem to solve, start to browse crates.io or https://github.com/rust-unofficial/awesome-rust for possible solutions.

37. Awesome Rust is a great repo with a huge curated list of plenty with Rust code and resources. You can find complete applications in different areas that were built based on Rust.

I'd recommend taking a look at https://github.com/rust-unofficial/awesome-rust and seeing if anything interests you that way.

Not really sorted by complexity, but awesome-rust might be close to what you're looking for.

This list is currently far more comprehensive, and it's filled with a lot of high-quality crates.

We needed to introduce a new service for search. As we settled on using meilisearch, we needed a way to sync updates on our models with the records in meilisearch. We could've continued to use callbacks but we needed something better.

Meilisearch

In this case, a good strategy is to use vector search only when the keyword/prefix search returns none or just a small number of results. A good candidate for this is MeiliSearch. It uses custom ranking rules to provide results as fast as the user can type.

With the VertexAI endpoint set up and tested, our next step is to work with LibreChat. LibreChat is an open-source ChatGPT clone that can integrate with various AI models, including the PaLM 2 models via the VertexAI API. It's built using React, MongoDB, and Meilisearch technologies.

Meilisearch seems like it is the best open source option.

Starting with v1.3, you can use Meilisearch as a vector store. Meilisearch allows you to store vector embeddings alongside your documents conveniently. You will need to create the vector embeddings using your third-party tool of choice (Hugging Face, OpenAI). As we published the first v1.3 release candidate, you can try out vector search today.

I work at Meilisearch, an open-source search engine built in Rust. 🦀
