cloudformation-guard VS winit

If you now use these services to fix the infrastructure findings, a drift occurs that is not always easy to fix. It is better to check for possible problems before the actual deployment. This approach is called “Shift-Left”. This can be done with the package cdk-validator-cfnguard. It's based on the CloudFormation Guard package.

AWS Config rules allow you to determine if a resource is compliant or not. Previously when you wanted to do custom checks you needed to write AWS Lambda functions to validate the configuration of a resource. Since Aug 2, 2022 you have the ability to use cfn-guard rules to achieve the same.

In my previous blog, How do you prove that your infrastructure is compliant. I explained how you can prove your infrastructure is compliant using CloudFormation Guard. But, how do you write those rules? And even more important, how do you test your rules? If you look at the repository CloudFormation Guard. You will notice that the project itself offers a testing framework. Alright! Let’s build a ruleset and write some tests for it!

When you use CloudFormation Guard in combination with CodeBuild Reports it makes it easier to see what rules have failed and keeps a history. When you have a solid set of compliance rules. It gives you a report that you can use to prove that the build of the infrastructure was compliant. You are also able to prevent non-compliant code rollout in production.

AWS CloudFormation: can help with deploying compliant stacks. You can make sure that a stack is compliant by using AWS CloudFormation guard.

See https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/cloudformation-guard

Currently, we're also exploring the brand new AWS Config rules backed by guard. Now you can write rules using guard which is a policy-as-code language. Here is some example of a Guard Rule which we are testing.

https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/cloudformation-guard is also very useful, but more so when you want to keep your templates consistent to standards.

Hi! I’m Aloke, an engineer at Warp.

I’m really excited to share that Warp is now available on Linux! If you’re interested in trying it out, you can download Warp: https://warp.dev/

Building Warp on Linux was quite an undertaking. Warp uses a custom Rust-based UI framework that we built in house and renders natively on the GPU. To get Warp running on Linux, we built a version of our UI framework that supports winit [1] as a windowing backend. We also built a version of our renderer that uses wgpu [2]. Reducing complexity by using these well-supported, cross platform, frameworks let us bootstrap a version of Linux quicker than expected and should make it easier to build Warp for other platforms (like Windows).

Please let me know what you think! Happy to answer any questions, either about the product or about technical challenges.

This link: https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit has this code:

Have you seen the official example?

That's a bit shortsighted given that there is an active discussion about reducing the interior mutability.

I really need a file dialog for my ImGui-based project in Rust. I tried using this crate but it's wayyyyyyy too old. I also saw this but considering the date it was last updated and the look of the repo, it's not gonna work either. Also I maintain my own library for such things, but it's currently blocked by this issue. What options do I have?

In this case, I used the "A"GPL because this crate could feasibly run on the web. winit has a web backend. At the moment I don't support it (there's a PR that needs to land first), but in the near future it's not implausible that this crate could be used in a web environment.

There are a number of up-and-coming Rust-based frameworks in this niche:

- https://github.com/iced-rs/iced (probably the most usable today)

- https://github.com/vizia/vizia

- https://github.com/marc2332/freya

- https://github.com/linebender/xilem (currently very incomplete but exciting because it's from a team with a strong track record)

What is also exciting to me is that the Rust GUI ecosystem is in many cases building itself up with modular libraries. So while we have umpteen competing frameworks they are to a large degree all building and collaborating on the same foundations. For example, we have:

- https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit (cross-platform window creation)

- https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu (abstraction on top of vulkan/metal/dx12)

- https://github.com/linebender/vello (a canvas like imperative drawing API on top of wgpu)

- https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (UI layout algorithms)

- https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text (text rendering and editing)

- https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit (cross-platform accessibility APIs)

In many cases there a see https://blessed.rs/crates#section-graphics-subsection-gui for a more complete list of frameworks and foundational libraries)
