- benesch 7y agoFrank’s written a tutorial style mdbook on Differential [0] that I highly recommend in addition to his blog posts. There’s also the research paper on the spawned the Timely and Differential projects, Naiad [1]. If you get into it, the library itself is well documented on docs.rs and there’s an active Gitter channel. (Disclaimer: I work with Frank at his company, Materialize.)
