I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Rustcrab, a free and open-source repository dedicated to Rust developers.
Rustcrab aims to provide meaningful information about the Rust community, resources, news, projects, dev tools, and more.
What I’ve Done So Far:
<ul>
<li>Bought the domain using NameCheap</li>
<li>Created a Next.js project and deployed it to Vercel</li>
<li>Linked the custom domain to Vercel</li>
<li>Created a minimal page with light and dark modes, real-time GitHub stars, and social profiles</li>
<li>Integrated Substack email (basic but functional for now)</li>
</ul>

Thanks to AI’s support, all this was accomplished in just a few hours. It’s incredible how AI can accelerate the process when you know what you’re doing.
What’s Next:
<ul>
<li>Add more sections</li>
<li>Promote the project</li>
<li>Send email updates</li>
<li>Host live events</li>
<li>Why Rustcrab?</li>
</ul>
For more than six months, I’ve been curating and organizing Rust-related content daily. It’s time to share these resources openly and make them accessible to everyone.
I will also create a separate channel on Discord for discussions.
If you are interested, please subscribe to the newsletter and star the repo on GitHub.

Disclaimer
The project is in its early stages, but launching early allows for community feedback and contributions. Feel free to add issues to the GitHub repository, and I will address them. I might even work on some of them live.
Thank you for your support!

Let's talk about Open Source, FOSS, and everything in between.

Open Source

Rustcrab is a newly launched, free, open-source hub for Rust developers. It offers resources, news, projects, and tools related to the Rust community. The project was rapidly developed using AI, and it includes features like real-time GitHub stars and Substack email integration. The next steps involve adding more sections, promoting the project, and hosting live events. A Discord channel for discussions will also be created.
