Thank you. Not many free and in-depth resource for Bevy engine. Mostly are paid ones. I am surprised that you switch from Ruby to Rust. Seems a different beast

As a long time ruby enjoyer and now also rust enjoyer, the core syntax and systems of rust are very rubyesque in a lot of ways, you can tell that some of the core contributors liked the language.

  yeah ruby API ideas and the _why poignant guide specifically, they were very influential in programming in general. a number of early rust devs came from ruby as well. all original authors of cargo worked on ruby's bundler earlier. etc

  Really? What do you think comes from Ruby? Rust mostly seems to be inspired by ML and C++. Actually I just checked the "official" list and they only list the closure syntax which seems pretty minor: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/influences.html https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/influences.html

    Expression orientation

      That's from functional programming.

        I don't think anyone claimed that Ruby and Rust were the only two languages with those features, just that they're something they both have in common.
        IshKebab 6mo ago
        The claim is that Rust took espression-orientation from Ruby. That's unlikely - it is much more inspired by FP languages which are also expression oriented.

        Ah, you're right, I definitely misread that the first time. I think the only thing that Rust probably was directly inspired by Ruby on was the syntax for closures (which is not exactly the same, but when the closure uses a block rather than returning an expression directly it's similar, and I vaguely recall seeing something about that being intentional).

    Iterator style, chaining, traits, blocks all feel very rubyesque, and expression syntax as well, plus the cargo toolchain is very bundler-informed.

    A significant portion of the prominent community members come from Ruby so I guess there must be something …

  I think Chris Biscardi has some paid resources that involve Bevy at https://www.rustadventure.dev/pricing https://www.rustadventure.dev/pricing they might be referring to. He's also got plenty of free resources which I love to watch: https://www.youtube.com/@chrisbiscardi https://www.youtube.com/@chrisbiscardi

    To be fair, Chris is the guy for bevy. He's been making videos long enough to know how to use it properly

can you tell me what those paid ones are?
