How can you support me?
All of the articles, videos, and open source contributions that are made here are funded directly by individuals and companies through donations.
- GitHub Sponsors is based in the US, pays through Stripe
- Patreon has the highest fees, but it’s here too out of convenience.
The “Silver” tier gives you advance access to articles and videos, one week before they’re made available to everyone else. Every piece of content ends up publicly available eventually — I consider my work a public service.
For those who cannot afford to pitch in financially, you can still help:
- Follow me on Bluesky or Mastodon
- Subscribe to my YouTube channel
- Subscribe to my RSS feed
- Send me good vibes by e-mail
I’m extremely lucky to be able to contribute to the Rust ecosystem as an independent, and can only do it through the support of people like you.
Thank you so much for your continued support, I owe y’all everything.
Did you know I also make videos? Check them out on PeerTube and also YouTube!
Here's another article just for you:
Futures Nostalgia
Up until recently, hyper was my favorite Rust HTTP framework. It’s low-level, but that gives you a lot of control over what happens.
Here’s what a sample hyper application would look like:
$ cargo new nostalgia
Created binary (application) `nostalgia` package
$ cd nostalgia
$ cargo add [email protected] --features "http1 tcp server"
Updating 'https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index' index
Adding hyper v0.14 to dependencies with features: ["http1", "tcp", "server"]
$ cargo add tokio@1 --features "full"
Updating 'https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index' index
Adding tokio v1 to dependencies with features: ["full"]
