What are some useful crates?

posted 1 year ago

I love browsing crates.io and blessed.rs for interesting and useful crates to experiment with. What are your favorite?

I’m especially interested in those simple ones that do one thing and do it will, like uuid, tempfile, and notify.

I mean serde is – in my understanding – the most useful crate out there. It does exactly one thing and that very well.

Dtolney, the author for serde, has a stupid amount of libraries that fit this.

Other than serde, he owns syn, thiserror, anyhow, and async-trait.

He’s practically the Atlas of the Rust ecosystem.
