committed VS crates.io

I use https://github.com/crate-ci/committed and pre-commit (the python app)

committed just reads commit messages between a range of commits, after resolving refs

For colors, I've found yansi to be great to work with. I then use concolor-control (example) and `concolor-clap (no clap3 support yet, example part 1 and example part 2). As you can see, I also like to organize my colors by the styling role they fill. The only reason I wrapped in that example is its part of the crate's API and didn't want the public API tied to yansi.

While auto-generated changelogs aren't the best, they are better than nothing. Too often I've seen projects without a changelog which is especially annoying when dealing with breaking changes.

I've been considering switching to a changelog generator, either from Conventional Commits or from a folder of files just to avoid merge conflicts with the CHANGELOG file.

If people want enforcement of Conventional Commit, check out https://github.com/crate-ci/committed

Rust has a rich ecosystem of frameworks and libraries that let you read, parse, and manipulate text files, interact with cloud services and databases, and perform any other job that your project's development workflow may require. And because of its strong typing and tight memory management, you are much less likely to write programs that behave unexpectedly in production.

All the code discussed in this article can be accessed through this repository. For integration with existing projects consider using keyword_extraction crate available on crates.io.

So, be sure to double-check your critical libraries and be sure their alternatives exist in the Rust ecosystem. There’s a good chance the crates you need are available in Rust's crates.io repository.

The previous section was very simple, this section is also very simple but introduces us to cargo which is Rust's package manager, as a JS dev my mind goes straight to NPM.

Now, there has to be a place where all these packages come from. Similar to npmjs registry, where all node packages are registered, stored and retrieved, Rust also has something called crates.io where many helpful packages and dependencies are registered.

Before proceeding, let's check https://crates.io/, the official Rust package registry.

The most thrilling aspect has been the joy of writing the backend. It's like every struct, enum, and method in Rust forms this interconnected Multiverse of code , which you can see in crates.io which is best Documentation experience I Ever Had.

5. Crates.io

When using crates from eg. crates.io, and also things like std and core

Vendoring your packages was very tedious to even remotely get to work with Cargo. I spent a very long time getting Cargo to work together with cargo-local-registry. We vendor crates from crates.io and a custom internal registry.
