    Still learning Rust by building a REPL and a library to use and query a Bitcask datastore. Done at 80 % (you know the Pareto principle, don't you?) Trying to write as idiomatic as possible.

    I recently implemented the Bitcask paper in Golang and shared my learnings [on this post](https://mrkaran.dev/posts/barreldb/).

    [GitHub](https://github.com/mr-karan/barreldb/) repo if interested.

    Bitcask is an excellent paper that is not overwhelming to understand and offers a great stepping stone in building your own data stores. The simple yet powerful design of an append only file is eloquent and performant.

    I’d love to read about more such implementations, if anyone has any recommendations.
