Post it when it's production ready. A big problem in the Rust ecosystem is the lack of continued work and support on libraries (understandably, since many are new and aren't commercially supported). For example, pyroute2 is still better for Linux admin that the equivalent Rust crates. Whilst the latter often fully support async, none of them cover all of the features of pyroute2 nor the easy-to-use API. Hopefully things will improve over time, it's always a shame to see great projects be abandoned.

  I just meant that even big projects posted here in the past like the Headcrab debugger: https://github.com/headcrab-rs/headcrab https://github.com/headcrab-rs/headcrab have been seemingly abandoned now. Even Rocket https://github.com/SergioBenitez/Rocket https://github.com/SergioBenitez/Rocket seems to have greatly slowed development unfortunately.

    Maybe those projects are considered "done".

    Nowadays the Rust http libraries to use are warp or axum (but Rocket works as is) https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum re headcrab, https://github.com/headcrab-rs/headcrab/issues/132 https://github.com/headcrab-rs/headcrab/issues/132

      > Nowadays the Rust http libraries to use are warp or axum Warp and axum are certainly not the only choices, and saying they are the best choices is a matter of opinion. Actix-web, rocket, tide, warp, axum are all great web frameworks.

The project author asks for help at the end of the blog post¹ announcing it, if you want to have a production ready kernel, maybe invest some time? ¹ https://seiya.me/writing-linux-clone-in-rust https://seiya.me/writing-linux-clone-in-rust
