• Write a Redux library in Rust

  Mar 12, 2022 • Nazmul Idris

  This article illustrates how we can build a Redux library in Rust. This library is thread safe and asynchronous (using Tokio). The middleware and subscribers will be run in parallel. But the reducer functions will be run in sequence.

• Build a grep CLI app in Rust

  Mar 2, 2022 • Nazmul Idris

  This article illustrates how we can build a CLI app in Rust that is a very basic implementation of grep. This app will have 2 modes of operation: piping lines in from `stdin` and searching them, and reading a file and searching thru it. The output of the program will be lines that match the search term w/ the term being highlighted. Topics like `stdin` manipulation in a terminal, detecting when the terminal is in `tty` mode vs `piped` mode, doing simple file I/O, creating non consuming builders, and managing `Result`s, along w/ building a simple CLI interface are covered in this article.
