  • rfcs

    RFCs for changes to Rust

  • Rust was designed by people who wanted to bring proven concepts from research and functional languages into the mainstream, and, though it used to be more Go-like, it pivoted toward prioritizing being suitable as a more modern replacement for C and C++ about a year before v1.0 froze the language.

  • hyper

    An HTTP library for Rust (by hyperium)

  • A type system rich enough to encode the typestate pattern so things which implement state machines (eg. HTTP) such as Hyper can turn that infamous PHP "Couldn't set header because the body has already begun streaming" error into compile-time errors like "No method 'set header' on type Response.)

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
