> TIOBE's data is so botched...

Stop deluding yourself. If we take out TIOBE, and use the IEEE's Top Programming Languages of 2022, D is still recognized (even higher than the 30s) while Zig, Nim, or Crystal do not even make their chart. That's the reality.

> Vlang...

To begin with, you are a known troll (with possibly multiple troll accounts at HN) that has spent over an year engaging in slander and lies about the language almost any time it's mentioned.

Looks like you are the creator or involved with some other language that can't get as much support or popularity. It would be advisable for you to stop being obsessed with Vlang. How many years of your life will you waste on such childish antics? You would be better off focusing on making your programming language better, if it's not already too late and its a failure.

As for pushing this bold face lie that the language is a "scam", that's both ludicrous and easily proven false. Vlang has many hundreds of code examples and projects. Easily found at: 1) Vlang examples on GitHub (vlang/V/tree/master/examples). 2) Vlang at Rosetta Code (https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:Vlang). 3) Awesome Vlang at GitHub (https://github.com/vlang/awesome-v).

The "scam" is you tricking yourself into thinking that your troll tactics are working. Instead, your continual defamation is making what you are even more obvious.

Where I totally agree with you is about how we can have different interpretations of what this involves. Thus, I kind of go with examples and projects. Awesome V on GitHub, would probably be a good place to find something, if a person wanted to get into some significant projects, but don't know how deep the OP wants to go.

Please reach out on the diesel discussion forum[1] about the lacking dev experience. I'm happy to discuss these issues and potential solutions there.

As is customary for most web frameworks, Rocket allows you to use object-relational mappers (ORMs) as a data access layer for your application. Rocket is ORM agnostic, which means you can use any Rust ORM of your choice to access your database in your Rocket application. In this article, we’ll use Diesel ORM as our ORM of choice as it’s one of the most popular Rust ORMs. At the time of writing, Diesel ORM supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite databases.

The Diesel getting started guide is explicitly written for using PostgreSQL as your database system. It is using some parts of SQL that are not supported by SQLite. You can follow the equivalent SQLite code by looking at this diesel example. In the concrete case that error is caused by the fact that only quite new SQLite versions support returning clauses. These support is behind an off-by-default feature flag and requires using an up to date SQLite version.

“watched prime yell about VIM for hours” lmao well done, this got me. A lot of the resources people have already suggested are great! One thing I like to do after going through the documentation for a language is trying to build something like a simple rest api to get a better feel. Rocket (https://rocket.rs) and actix web (https://actix.rs) are popular web frameworks and then for ORM diesel (https://diesel.rs).

You should minimise the non-Rust parts though, don't get tied up in anything else or your scope will quickly outgrow a two month deadline. Use something like https://dummyjson.com/ as a foundation to skip the need to find/generate/build database + content, or use a combination of postgres/postgrest to get a quick API + database and use faker to fill it up quickly. That'd allow you to use something like SQLx or https://diesel.rs/ in the application.

Congratulations to the release. I know all of this is hard work. I would like to invite you to submit a ormlite implementation to the diesel benchmark collection. As soon as that's merged you will get regular reports here. The relevant code is here in the diesel repository.

Doing arbitrary syntax transformations in procedural macros is not powerful enough? Does C++ have something like serde or diesel?

I've been building a relatively small project with axum and diesel, and I'm pretty happy with it.

There's also Diesel and SeaORM for higher level interfaces.
