Elixir and Rust is a good mix

• gleam

  107 17,623 9.9 Rust

  ⭐️ A friendly language for building type-safe, scalable systems!

  

  As it usually goes in programming, "it depends on your objectives", there are things that are easier accomplished with the ErlangVM than Rust. Also, if you want a language that uses the ErlangVM and has static types, maybe you should take a look at Glean[1].

  In my case I prefer to work with Elixir because of the community, I find way easier to work professionally with Elixir than many other languages, as mostly projects follows the same good practices, use the same tools and have good documentation.

• lunatic

  86 4,617 5.7 Rust

  Lunatic is an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly

  

  There's a couple of Rust libs and frameworks inspired on Erlang in 'best of both worlds' attempts, such as https://lunatic.solutions

  I found others like Lunatic before, but cannot remember right now.

  zig nifs in elixir

  

  I admit for a long time this was my primary motivation to learn Rust, but, sadly, I haven't come across problems in years that were CPU bound/where I needed something like Rust... Rustler still looks like a great fit if needed, but, depending on the use case, if I were CPU bound and needed to write my own code/not just use a Rust library, I'd be as or more likely to look at using Zig and Zigler[0], for much faster learning curve, and from what I've read, easier tighter integration into elixir, including I think language server integration. Some discussion here[1] though I forget if I listened to this one or not.

• regex_help

  1 11 10.0 Elixir

  Get a computer to write regex for you. A front-end for grex (https://github.com/pemistahl/grex).

  Neat! You should definitely add a link to the github repo to the main page of regex.help though, because I didn't realize it was open source and I'll use it now.

• diamond-types

  17 1,589 9.3 Rust

  The world's fastest CRDT. WIP.

  But I think thats about it. Maybe there's more manually specified types in "normal" rust because most functions are smaller than that. But, it doesn't feel so bad. In this case I could probably even remove the explicit type annotation for that queue definition if I wanted to, but it makes the compiler's errors better leaving it in.
