Whenever I skill up on a dev environment, I tend to reach for either a gamedev project or an RSS feed poller. Well, I'm back on the latter bullshit again, this time in Rust
It's not great code yet, but I'm trying to fumble toward idioms and eventually have it look like the right thing. Pretty nice to build a standalone static binary that works on Windows and a Raspberry Pi without having to install a whole ecosystem of crud ahead of time (cough like node.js)
@rafial Yeah, I spent a few hours with Go but kept bouncing off. Rust seems in a very similar niche. I managed to cobble together some Github Action automation from copypasta that builds a binary that runs on Win, Mac, Ubuntu, Raspi, and Android
