Jaime Morgan Hitchcock

used this to build Surrealist

(498 points)

We chose Rust for SurrealDB because performance and safety matter. Rust’s memory safety guarantees and zero-cost abstractions let us build a fast, scalable database engine without sacrificing reliability.

used this to build Enki

(176 points)

We built the Enki backend four times, starting with Rust, then Go, followed by Python, and finally back to Rust. The decision to return to Rust was driven by two key factors: exceptional support from libSQL, our primary database, and the unparalleled developer experience. With Rust, if it passes the compiler, there's a 99% chance it won’t break in production.

used this to build tonari

(288 points)

tonari has been built on Rust from day one! More on our journey with Rust here: https://blog.tonari.no/why-we-love-rust We also love to share tutorials and open-source our tools when we have time: https://blog.tonari.no/rust-simple-hardware-project https://blog.tonari.no/introducing-innernet

used this to build Signup Links by Wingback

(207 points)

Rust’s unparalleled safety and concurrency features allow us to handle high-stakes billing logic with zero compromises on performance or reliability. The incredible confidence you can have when refactoring for a big new feature is a game changer for a fast moving startup. We could move and not break things! Procedural macros, that everybody know for serde, also made it easy to enforce safety in usually negliged places, like typed ids used everywhere from the db to the core (we contributed https://github.com/wingbackapp/kind/ to the community).

used this to build mirrord for Teams

(289 points)

Rust's high performance and extensive guardrails around memory management are exactly what we needed to build a day-to-day software development tool with great DevEx and no footprint.

used this to build Vela

(67 points)

The API is written in Rust (by the way), resulting in a more stable and reliable experience thanks to Rust's incredible memory safety.

used this to build zitefy

(120 points)

rust is type-safe, secure and performant while being way more accessible than c/c++

used this to build Palform

(86 points)

Large parts of the codebase are Rust/WASM. Without this, scaling performance for tens of thousands of form responses would be impossible. Plus, the wide-ranging compiler guarantees are essential for an application like this, where there's nothing more important than security.
