serenity VS rust

https://github.com/serenity-rs/serenity/: A Discord client, has a file containing formattable endpoint strings that are then passed to a macro to build the endpoint. These endpoints are then obtained by deconstructing an enum with the relevant fields, which is used by the client upstream to make request. I really like this approach, the use of macros and enums feels quite natural.

What would be the best coding lang for this bot, I worked with discord.py in the past but I would like to use Serenity which allows you to make a discord bot with rust.

(https://github.com/serenity-rs/serenity/pull/1899).

With forced functional programming, you may be referring to serenity's builders? For example

```rust

I am one of the core team members at shuttle, and we've released the support for Serenity (a Rust library for the Discord API) a while back and now we have a tutorial ready for anyone willing to give it a go: https://www.shuttle.rs/blog/2022/09/14/serentity-discord-bot (creating a simple Discord bot, extending it to a weather forecast bot and deploying it with shuttle, for free).

I coded a small discord bot for fun with some friends (using serenityserenity).

For anyone who wants to get a Discord bot up and running (with Rust) - shuttle v.0.5.1 is out, with added Serenity support.

The long term way is to use Discord's interactions system, which involves application commands (slash commands, as well as context menu commands for users and messages), message components (buttons, select menus) and modals. There appears to be some examples provided by your library, including one for slash commands and one for message components, so you could have a look at them to see how to update your bot.

Use this crate : https://docs.rs/serenity/latest/serenity/ / https://github.com/serenity-rs/serenity ?

I’m looking to make a discord bot in using the great serenity framework. The only problem is I don’t have any ideas for what the bot should do. I have decent experience with rust and have used it for small webassembly applications at work. I’ve also used serenity a bit to make a Wordle leaderboard for a server. If you have a great idea and want to work on something together, or just want to learn rust, I am definitely willing to teach a bit as well. I don’t care if the idea has been done before, I want to learn as well!

If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:

This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:

Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

    #include 

> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.

Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Almost fixed the compiler: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123325

Rust: A secure, efficient, and modern programming language (omitting ten thousand words). You can simply follow the installation instructions provided on the official website.

Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.

To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/

We strongly believe in Rust as a powerful language for building production-grade software, especially for systems like ours that run alongside Kubernetes.

The above Assert<{N % 2 == 1}> requires #![feature(generic_const_exprs)] and the nightly toolchain. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76560 for more info.
