Ask HN: Which projects (applications) use Rust?
I like rust and know that there are tons of rust libraries out there. However, when a friend recently asked me if there are any projects that use rust to build programs/applications/web services/projects, I couldn't really name more than Servo.
Which projects do sucessfully use Rust?
- squiguy7 11y agoThese may count as libraries, but they are all building blocks for bigger projects.

- honest_joe 11y agoWell the language has just got stable only recently so it's only natural any real world projects were not that eager to adopt it. Another thing is that a compiler has to be yet optimized as the performance is not that great compared to other "mature" solutions.
- pdx 11y agoSAFE Network is now going to rust. These guys are porting all their code from C to Rust and really loving the experience. They are making their libraries stand-alone so they can easily be incorporated in other open source projects as well.
