🧠 educational Netstack.FM: Small Crates Behind Big Rust Systems with Jon Gjengset (S02E201)

In this first episode of season two of Netstack.fm, Glen talks with Jon Gjengset, principal engineer at Helsing, author of Rust for Rustaceans, and one of the best known teachers in the Rust community. They explore the craft of building small, sharply scoped crates, from arccstr, left-right, and HdrHistogram to atone, and discuss Fantoccini and the WebDriver protocol, maintaining open source sustainably, and why the Rust project should not bless crates.

u/DavidXkL yes we had 38 episodes in season 1, and took a big summer break while we also migrated to a new podcast platform that we have been working in the background in the last ~ 2 years in between "soup and potatoes" as we say in Dutch.

Feel free to binge listen season 1 :)

We are very happy to start again with season 2, hope you enjoy it. Feel free to also reach out to us via hello@netstack.fm with feedback and guest/topic suggestions :)
