Loved this. Personally, I've rarely seen rust tuts that provide insights in comparison to PHP. Laracasts series that expands on this video? Would be awesome! A Laracasts series that expands on this using full-blown framework like Rust's 'Rocket' would be incredible! Especially coming from you! Regardless, thank you for this Nuno!
Well done! I use Laravel daily and was looking for a simple introduction to Rust because the borrow checker and lifetimes are a bit of a burden. Looking forward to what the Laravel community brings to Rust!
If you are using the terminal all the time, there's one shortcut that you should learn immediately and that is cmd+L or ctrl+L, this clears the terminal window, don't type clear.
Fantastic tut bro! I'm a laravel guy and we were internally talking about learning Rust for a fintech project and your video helps very much to begin the journey. PS: I was pleased to meet you in Laracon India 2023
Wow, watching this video was an enlightenment. I will go on now to learn some Rust. What would have been of interest for me is, how to connect Rust via FFI with PHP.
An alternative approach to combining Rust with PHP would be a PHP extension written in Rust. There's a library/crate called "ext-php-rs" that does the heavy lifting. Might be easier than dealing with FFI.
Hi, On 20:33 I would use pattern matching instead of dealing with indices ```rust match args.as_slice() { [] => unreachable!("env::args() is expected to always provide the executable path as the first arg"), [_executable] => display_help(), [_executable, command, c_args @ ..] => handle_command((command, c_args)), }; ``` And on 21:35 I would use plain `return` keyword instead of `process::exit(0)`. Even though it's rarely used, it's handy in this case.
Rust and PHP solve different problems. However, in this video, I try to explain Rust from a PHP developer perspective so it gets a little bit easier for them.
@@nunomaduro this is perfect. because i was having trouble with gravitational forces, but i was good at magnetism. so my teacher basically re-taught gravity stuff using magnetism. sometimes all you need is a "topic-adaptor" :)
I think it wold be great idea for someon to make Rustvel, combining speed of the Rust and elegancy of Laravel, i know thre are many php specific "things" in Laravel but i don't think it would be that difficult to make same fucntionalities in Rust, plus Rust is great for OOP and functional programming....and you can make front and back end with it so the framework could highspeed fullstac.
@@chibuzorogbu4081 exactly, in Rust, you'd need to rely on static analysis and code generation rather than runtime introspection. Rust’s macro system and generics can help here. Procedural macros allow for compile-time code introspection and manipulation, emulating Laravel’s features. This approach benefits from Rust's performance, security, and reliability, avoiding the overhead of runtime reflection.
Nuno is doing so much stuff for the community, the language and the framework.
This is very interesting because PHP and Rust are polar opposites. The most dynamic language vs the most static language

Glad it was helpful!
Great! You should have a series “X for PHP developers” with other languages! You are great at explaining things in a comprehensible yet engaging way!
You described it very well.
If you are using the terminal all the time, there's one shortcut that you should learn immediately and that is cmd+L or ctrl+L, this clears the terminal window, don't type clear.
But the tradeoff is you will forgot 'clear' command.

Wow, very impressive talk. Thank you Nuno
Great video! Thank you Nuno 😃
Great presentation...very inspiring.

Thank you.
Thank you for this!
Really cool! Thanks Nuno
I was waiting for this 🤩
Very cool talk, thanks a lot for the inspiration.
You are a magician! Wonderful.
I really learned a lot with this video!!
While me commenting.. "Livewire is love"
Rust is awesome
Hi,

match args.as_slice() {
[] => unreachable!("env::args() is expected to always provide the executable path as the first arg"),
[_executable] => display_help(),

};
```
And on 21:35 I would use plain `return` keyword instead of `process::exit(0)`. Even though it's rarely used, it's handy in this case.
loved the video, just one question why is it related to PHP? are we going to use Rust in PHP? I am confused.
It's never a bad idea to broaden your knowledge on different paradigms

Hows zig compared to rust in safety
do you actually use light mode or is it just for the presentation? :|
It depends. I like to change.
You just convinced me to never try Rust!
What editor are you using?
Sublime Text.
06:42. Installing Rust on Windows is a bit more involving. You'll need some Windows SDKs and the curl command will not work on Windows.
All of a sudden I want to try Rust without leaving PHP.

sorry no reflections in Rust, but then again there is the crowd for rust that tend to think differently about all batteries-included frameworks.
