We're looking for #rustlang engineers to join the @mainmatter.com team – more info here: mainmatter.notion.site/Rust-Freelan... Come join us!

big jump for #rustlang in the latest #tiobe index as well: www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/ (think of that index what you want but it's another positive signal for sure)

On my way home from @rustnationuk.bsky.social and #rustglobal Thanks Ernest, @rustfoundation.bsky.social and team for organizing – great job as always 🙌 I’ll see everyone at @eurorust.eu rust in Paris this October!

Im at #RustNationUK today – if you’d like to chat about @mainmatter.com’s work with #rustlang or @eurorust.eu (Oct 9&10 in Paris), hit me up!

remembered to take the passport this year and I'll indeed be there but forgot the socket adapter as usual – getting the 23rd one at LHR now… See everyone at @rustnationuk.bsky.social nUK tomorrow – fully charged ⚡️

Elixir + Rust = 🚀 At @elixirconfeu.bsky.social , @lpalmieri.com & Łukasz Pauszek will run a hands-on workshop on Interfacing Rust in Elixir, covering Rustler, NIFs & concurrency. Mark your calendar, May 14, 2025! ➡️ www.elixirconf.eu/trainings/in... #ElixirConfEU #rustlang #elixirlang #techtalk

Thanks @discourse.org for supporting the #emberjs initiative 🙌

Professional #rustlang usage keeps growing and servers/backends remain the biggest field – I'm as optimistic about @mainmatter.com's bet on Rust as I was 2y ago: mainmatter.com/blog/2022/10...

At the #eurorust25 venue to start working on the setup for this year

Looking forward to coming to London next week for @rustnationuk.bsky.social 🙌 Note to self: bring passport, national ID isn’t sufficient for entering the UK

early train to Paris – if anyone wants to chat about @eurorust.eu or @mainmatter.com's work with #rustlang, hit me up, I’m free this afternoon

The #emberjs initiative is starting next week 🙌

`String`, `&str`, `impl Into<String>` etc. are one of the weirdest topics when getting started with #rustlang – this is a nice intro: blog.sulami.xyz/posts/string...

Meet @paolo.ricciuti.me in Vienna next week and get adorable sheepdog.run stickers

Looks clean and useful for svelte template async integration sheepdog.run

Is anyone aware of a public case study about a backend (re-) written in #rustlang that includes some stats on reliability improvements? I'm looking for sth. like "x% reduction in runtime errors" or so ideally.

Classic European anti-Americanism has always been boring and dumb in many ways but seeing yesterday's pictures and videos, it's hard to not think we're all observing the idiotization of US (and with that, global) politics in realtime 🤡

I think there's lots of confusion in the conversation about #rustlang for “web development”, e.g. here: thenewstack.io/the-rise-of-.... It starts with the term meaning different things to different people: some think frontend, others think backend, yet others think full-stack. 1/🧵

We're starting the work on the visuals for @eurorust.eu 2025 🎨 Can't wait to finalize this and get the website online 🙌

There't lots to like about #rustlang besides just performance. My personal favorite is robustness – having confidence that what you wrote will very likely run without crashing is awesome (and not something I was used to necessarily) ntietz.com/blog/great-t...

Paolo is an awesome teacher 🙌 If you're looking for supporting getting on to Svelte 5 and adopting runes, check out the workshop!

The recording from Rust Hack & Learn, a collaboration with Rust Hamburg and Otto, is now live! 🎥 Catch @marcoow.bsky.social on Gerust and Andreas Bergmeier on programming microcontrollers with Rust. Now on YouTube 🦀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ar9f... #rustlang #rust #rustmeetup

standing in the office making selfies for LinkedIn posts like an idiot 🎉

I said it before but I'm so hyped for this workshop...it will be so fun to teach you the ins and outs of svelte 5 🧡

New year, new @eurorust.eu – the @mainmatter.com team is starting preparation for #eurorust25 in Paris this week 🦀🚀🇫🇷

Thanks again to everyone who helped make 2024 an awesome year at @mainmatter.com – looking forward to 2025 already 🎉❤️

Today is really the perfect day for our heating to break – nobody will be able to fix it in the next 2 weeks probably 🥶

What a great end of the year 🎉 When we started the Embroider initiative, we weren’t sure we’d find any sponsors at all and now we made it to this point – awesome to see 🐹❤️ Thanks to the team for the great work and all sponsors for making it possible 🙌 Next step: mainmatter.com/ember-initia...

Our Rust expert Henk Oordt was featured in the @foundation.rust-lang.org.web.brid.gy ’s recent spotlight on Rust education 🦀 – great work Henk 🙌 Full article ➡️ https://foundation.rust-lang.org/news/supporting-the-future-of-rust-spotlight-on-teaching-initiatives/ #rustlang #teachrs #rustedu

What you do when someone says the words "let's be more ambitious" in a project you're working on

We've always pushed for @mainmatter.com being an active member and supporter of the communities behind the technologies we specialized in – I'm very happy we now organize or co-organize community events in #emberjs, #rustlang, and #svelte ❤️

Join our Svelte 5 & Runes workshop and dive into the latest features and tools to supercharge your apps. Don’t miss out—get ready to adopt Svelte 5 & runes! 💻 Sign up now! ✍🏼  https://ti.to/mainmatter/svelte-5-runes-feb-2025 #Svelte5 #runes #workshop #developers

We have gerust.rs stickers now – next chance to get one is at Rust Munich this Thursday: www.meetup.com/rust-munich/... #rustlang

💁‍♂️👩‍🏫 @mainmatter.com is running a series of #rustlang & #svelte workshops in Q1–ping me for a discount code 💸 ➡️ Testing for #rustlang: ti.to/mainmatter/r... ➡️ #rustlang from scratch: ti.to/mainmatter/r... ➡️ #svelte 5 & runes: ti.to/mainmatter/s... ➡️ #rustlang & #python interop: ti.to/mainmatter/r...

Rust makes intent & correctness explicit 🦀 Encode semantics in types, craft safer APIs, catch bugs at compile-time, and communicate intent through code — no fragile docs needed! ➡️ https://mainmatter.com/blog/2024/12/02/trash-in-treasure-out/ #rustlang #softwaredevelopment

We’re running a workshop to teach people #rustlang over 8 afternoons in January and February. This is a great opportunity for everyone who wants to get started with Rust but can’t get a full week off work for it.

We just released Gerust, a project generator for #rustlang backend projects. While taking inspiration from other frameworks, we didn’t just copy those but critically analyzed what makes sense in Rust and what doesn’t. Thanks @skade.bsky.social for allowing us to use the name!

first time in a long time – quite enjoyable soundtrack for a 5h train ride; also makes me feel old though 👴🏻

We'll also be streaming the event for everyone who can't join in person – tune in here at 18:30 CET: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ar9f...
