Main author of iron here, on mobile but happy to answer any questions.
Here's a link to the first chapter of an iron tutorial I've been working on, which explains the "hello world" example in great detail and introduces some of irons core abstractions: https://github.com/iron/byexample/blob/master/chapters/hello.md https://github.com/iron/byexample/blob/master/chapters/hello...
- viraptor 11y agoThanks for all the work on iron / hyper / web-related rust! You've done some impressive amount of coding! I was wondering what are your plans regarding iron-related extras. It seems like logger, staticfile, and others are not updated as often as iron itself (some fixes I noticed lately were PRs, staticfile fails on travis). Do you have plans on how to expand iron in the future? Will you produce more basic blocks yourself, or do you expect some community modules to start growing as people use iron itself?
- jonreem 11y agoI try to maintain and ensure the basic building blocks are usable and high quality, but I am just one person, and there is much to do. There are several other people associated with iron who also help with maintenance and feature additions to the key packages under the iron organization, and they make everything much much easier (thanks again!). There are already some community crates that integrate with iron, providing things like handlebars templating; I hope that as the community expands, more third party crates will appear and make using iron even easier. If anyone is interested in working on iron or wants to write a community crate using it, you should reach out on the #iron channel on the Mozilla IRC network. I and others hang out there and we can answer questions and provide help.
