Do Rust dependencies get nasty like JS or Python?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/rust

  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • cross

    “Zero setup” cross compilation and “cross testing” of Rust crates

  • Static linking of Rust binaries means that your C dependencies are the only things outside the binary that can become mismatched when you're copying the binary to another system. (Though libc is a C dependency, so you may need to either use cross or rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl and build against that instead if you need to support Linux distro versions earlier than whatever you're running.)

  • Poetry

    Python packaging and dependency management made easy

  • While I've been using Python for over 20 years, I can't speak on that. I always felt like Anaconda was some weird NIH solution (to the point where I never even checked if it was a platform-specific workaround for Windows being inferior to POSIX as a deve platform like ActivePython) that I steered clear of in favour of stock PyPI plus virtualenv originally and, now, tools that build on stock PyPI like pipenv and Poetry.

  • 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.
