Looking at this from the Ruby world, cargo appears to be mostly a clone of the bundler model (with a sprinkle of rake folded in) which has existed for a looooong while ;)
It's quite funny to see languages fumbling on dependency management and somehow "refusing" to look at how bundler operates, then stumbling on a very close solution and then community rejoices at their package management being the best thing since slice bread.
- Tade0 4y agoHow is the approach in Ruby different/better? Asking out of ignorance.
- geewee 4y agoI'm pretty sure that Rust hired the people who worked on bundler to build cargo - so it would make sense that they're pretty similar.
- kibwen 4y agoMozilla literally contracted the Bundler authors to create Cargo, so the similarity is intentional. :P
- lloeki 4y agoI'm quite sure it is! I did not know the bundler authors were actively contacted though, thanks for that piece of info!
