core VS linuxbrew-core

An alternative is metacall. The example in the readme is about calling Python from Javascript, but it also works with other languages, like Ruby, C#, Java, and other languages

https://github.com/metacall/core

List of supported languages here https://github.com/metacall/core/blob/develop/docs/README.md...

In the future, maybe webidl (or extensions of it) will bring interoperability between languages too. At the moment there is https://mozilla.github.io/uniffi-rs/ for interoperability between Rust and a number of languages (basically the ones mozilla needs: Swift, Kotlin, Javascript)

Hi, I am writing a Polyglot Runtime called MetaCall, it provides interoperability between many different languages: https://github.com/metacall/core

MetaCall is an extensible, embeddable and interoperable cross-platform polyglot runtime. It supports NodeJS, Vanilla JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, C#, Java, WASM, Go, C, C++, Rust, D, Cobol.

I started looking for past selected organizations in February, found an organization named Metacall, which made polyglot programming easy. I made some contributions there. I looked into their past projects and tried to understand how the code base worked. The tech stack was mainly Python, C++, Rust, Nodejs, Docker. I knew very little about these.

MetaCall helps you build serverless applications using a more fine-grained, scalable and NoOps oriented Function Mesh instead of ServiceMesh and DevOps approach. It automagically converts your code into a Function Mesh and auto-scales individual hot parts or functions of your app.

We are building a Polyglot Runtime and we are adding support for Rust, if you are interested you can participate on it: https://github.com/metacall/core

I try to avoid any complicated tool and simplify my life with NoOps tools. Using Kubernetes or AWS from scratch is probably going to kill your startup.

In my case, I have tried MetaCall: https://metacall.io

I decided to take a few years off work to just build on what I'd like. Perhaps in a startup studio model, so I have a bias for having something that is easily reusable, and that uses tech someone else can pick up and run with easily. I'll probably be in the business of dev/infra tooling.

Currently going with a container image as the minimal deployable unit that gets put on top of a clean up to date OS. For me that's created with a Dockerfile using Alpine image variants. In a way I could see someone's rsync as an ok equivalent, but I'd do versioned symlinked directories so I can easily roll back if necessary if I went with this method. Something like update-alternatives or UIUC Encap/Epk: https://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Computers/docs/sysadmin/.... Anyone remember that? I guess the modern version of Epkg with dependencies these days is https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux. :-) Or maybe Nixpkgs: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs?

Deployment-wise I've already done the Bash script writing thing to help a friend automate his deployment to EC2 instance. For myself I was going to start using boto3, but just went ahead and learned Terraform instead. So now my scripts are just simple wrappers for Docker/Terraform that build, push, or deploy that work with AWS ECS Fargate or DigitalOcean Kubernetes.

No CI/CD yet. DBs/backups I'll tackle next as I want to make sure I can install or failover to a new datacenter without much difficulty.

If you need the absolute freshest development tools, also consider checking out Homebrew (easy) or Nix (more complicated). They're alternative package managers that will run happily alongside the default system stuff on most any Linux distro.

I've been running testing for years, but have switched to targetting bullseye so I will be back on stable when it is released. However, I have started installing most packages from linuxbrew now. https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux

I've found using homebrew (for linux), it builds pretty easily: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux

homebrew on linux

The first thing you will need is to install mkcert which can be done via homebrew or homebrew for Linux.

Yesterday I installed homebrew and I had to run some commands to export it on my path. This message used to be shown when I opened a terminal but I ignored it since I was bussy with work. Now it looks like I can't even login, any ideas?
