• wasm-bindgen

  44 7,270 9.2 Rust

  Facilitating high-level interactions between Wasm modules and JavaScript

  

Based on your target projects of front-end web apps, I'd recommend you learn something that compiles to javascript. In no particular order: I'd recommend either Typescript, Kotlin, or Javascript. Without getting too far into technical details, Javascript is the main language that is capable of running inside your browser. There are libraries for manipulating the browser DOM using WASM/rust, which would allow you to write your webpage fully in rust. However, none of them are truly beginner friendly or mature enough for me to endorse. Many of them (ex: wasm-bindgen) also require you to know a base amount of javascript in order to form the bridge between rust code and the browser. Just as a note, this isn't a Rust specific issue. You can't write Rust webpages for the same reason you can't really write Python webpages, or C# webpages: browsers only run javascript (or more recently wasm).

I've found git-odb, part of gitoxide, which seems to be their object database mechanism, but I honestly can't tell if this would allow me to do something like what I've described.
