The heap is a performance killer in Rust. One woraround is to swap to a more efficient memory allocator such as jemalloc.

In Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
mimalloc = "0.1"

In main.rs:

#[global_allocator]
static GLOBAL: mimalloc::MiMalloc = mimalloc::MiMalloc;

The best performance optimisation is to avoid the heap. There is the heapless create for that. "The only thing to know is that the size of heapless types and collections needs to be known at compile-time."

Lifetime annotations are needed to tell the compiler that we are manipulating some kind of long-lived reference and let it assert that we are not going to screw ourselves

The only downside is that smart pointers, in Rust, are a little bit verbose (but still way less ugly than lifetime annotations). [They add some runtime overhead.]

When to use lifetimes annotations?

When performance really matters or when your code will be used in no_std environments.

I don't know. It seems to be overkill for the use. Instead of words, some functions get a capital letter.

It is currently experimental, but could be amazing because it parse a string of HTML safely and then insert it into the DOM

It uses GSAP

For MacOS only
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;

A great CSS reset

A work to use rust build as PHP extension

It's not available in Firefox yet.

It marks the function as never returning.

In comparison, the unit type () returns at least a value.

The author creates an extension for 3 uuid functions in Rust.

Tradeoffs: big extension size (330KB for simple uuids)

About using SQLite:

As mentioned in an earlier post the two biggest pain points are the "slow" schema changes on 10M+ rows tables locking the entire database for 10+ seconds, and the difficulty to implement automated failover. But it rocks for services that don't need 99.999 % of availability.

assert!() use in const expression are a great way to ensure safe type casting

Even if you don’t use yt-dlp, the idea still applies: when you find yourself copy-pasting configuration and options, turn it into a standalone tool. It keeps your projects cleaner and more consistent, and your future self will thank you for it

Alexwlchan also made a resize image tool https://alexwlchan.net/2024/create-thumbnail/

HTMX filled me with so much joy when I started using it. But I haven’t felt like I lost anything since switching to Datastar. In fact, I feel like I’ve gained so much more.

If you’ve ever felt the joy of using HTMX, I bet you’ll feel the same leap again with Datastar. It’s like discovering what the web was meant to do all along.

<output> is currently underused in so many SPAs and apps, because it announces
