My first Rust program
V
Engineer working in Cerebras. Latest work is Cerebras Inference. I love writing code in React, TypeScript, C++, Python. I spend most of my work hours tinkering with code.
I wrote my first Rust program. On my Mac, I was able to get started in a few minutes.
brew install rustup
This installs rustc (rust compiler) and cargo (for build).
rustc --version
cargo --version
I built an api server based on actix. It gets some data from redis. And for fun, I wrote the same api in python and fast api. And compared the results in POSTMAN.
Actix / Rust - 2ms
FastAPI / Python - 5ms
I will definitely give Rust a try for any performance critical projects.
