  Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  

There's an unstable feature that will be able to this more neatly. However, currently it splits [T;N] into &[T;M] and &[T] (as opposed to the preferable &[T;N-M]). This is because doing operations on const generics (N - M in this case) is yet another unstable feature and one that's even marked as incomplete iirc. So yeah most likely this will be easily doable with split_array_ref / split_array_muy in the future but that future might be quite a while away.

  Forum for discussion about what unsafe code can and can't do

  

No, this is something the unsafe working group is working on - but for now there's no actual specification for what you can and cannot do in unsafe code. There's things you definitely cannot do (read uninitialized memory, mutate through a shared reference (without UnsafeCell), etc) but there's definitely behavior that the rust team seems to have reserved as "we may or may not make this UB". The best place to look would be https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines

• ws-rs

  4 1,450 2.0 Rust

  Lightweight, event-driven WebSockets for Rust.

I wanted to try rust and developed a game websocket backend using ws-rs. Of course I didn't realize it was hardly maintained when I made my choice. The paradigm was very nice and simple, and it seemed really harder for a beginner to use (tokio-)tungstenite for example...
