Rust CLIs with Clap

news.ycombinator.com Arizona-Based Software Architect 2026-02-20 17:25:07

Types Define Interfaces Types are important. In fact, I'd guess that the expressive type system in rust is the single biggest reason why so many developers love the language. Types allow us to have a contract between parts of the system about our data and how to interact with it. All programming languages have the concept of types, but these exist along several dimensions. Strongly typed vs weakly typed as well as static vs dynamic typing. Rust stakes out its place as a statically, strongly typ

A year later I built a game that was my first experiment in that direction: Gossip.
