• README or I'll devour you: How to write a good README

• Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (49/2023)!

  I just read the above article by the official rust blog. I wanted to ask what is "feature" and "badge" refered to as in this blog? What does it mean? At some places "shields.io badge " is mentioned. Are "badge" and "feature" some rust terminologies? It will be helpful if someone explains me this blog post in fewer words. Source: 6 months ago

• Thinking about switching, what am I giving up?

  There are plenty of video editors available. Go to alternativeto.net which allows you to search for, well, alternatives to your existing apps. Source: 6 months ago

• Alternatives?

  Just recently I created a post showcasing a library I wrote and the first comment was: there is this other package that does that already. Sure it does, sort of, but its not a silver bullet just as pretty much anything. For applications there are platforms like https://alternativeto.net/ where people can vote for/against them, suggest alternatives and describe the differences between them. I've googled for...
