[pretzelhammer]

I have a headline-driven style for writing articles. I think of a cool headline and then I try to write the article for it. The headline is arguably the most important part since it's what gets people to click on the article in the first place and read it. If the article has a boring headline nobody even gives it a chance.

Here are some headlines I'm thinking of writing articles for, please reply and tell me which grab your attention the most and which you'd be the most excited to read:

• A Spoonful of Sugar Helps the Rust Go Down
• Async Programming in Rust
• Beginner's Guide to Unsafe Rust
• Closures in Rust
• Exploring Function Signatures in Rust
• JavaScript Dev Learns Rust
• Learning Rust in 2021
• Learn Rust in an Hour
• Learn Rust Real Good Real Fast
• Learn Rust with Generative Art
• Macros in Rust
• Polymorphism in Rust
• Rust: Behavior Oriented Programming
• Rust Crash Course
• Rust: Declarative Memory Management
• Rust Gotchas
• Rust Patterns
• Rust Solutions to Rust Problems
• Rust: The Hard Parts
• Strings in Rust
• Thinking in Rust
• Variance in Rust

Please feel welcome to suggest your own headlines and article ideas as well!

• Learning Rust in 2020

Async Programming in Rust
I would love to see a practical application written with async rust. Something that contains threads, or GUI, or something that makes the combination a little tricky (more than a hello_world.await!

Hi @hojjatabdollahi I wrote a couple articles on async programming Rust:

• RESTful API in Sync & Async Rust (2021)
• Beginner's Guide to Concurrent Programming: Building a Multithread Chat Server using Tokio (2024)

I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for though. If you want a deep dive on how async works under-the-hood then this is the best article I know on that subject: Learn Async Rust with Entirely Too Many Web Servers. Source code for that article here.
