Rust project startup kit
MinekPo1, 
to be fair , making a simple os is a fun side project , though I would recommend going with a toy VM rather than actual hardware
Rom, 
Small science projects:
- Baking soda and vinegar volcano
- Moon landing
- Splitting the atom

For people who don’t know, there is already a fully Rust OS: www.redox-os.org
Microkernel too which is pretty cool.
rambling_lunatic, IIRC the filesystem was literally just a text file.
spez, I have heard about Redox. What’s the difference between a microkernel and a kernel? Does redox use the linux kernel? Or has the guy written that in rust too?
vrighter, lots and lots more IPC. So lots and lots of context switches. So worse performance
UnfortunateShort, It’s a matter of perspective. If the game is Tic-Tac-Toe and the system a basic RISC SOC with open firmware this might be a fun project :P
0x4E4F, 
Well, that escalated rather quickly.
hypnotic_nerd, 
Very small projects 😂 after mastering it try building whooping to-do app in rust!
bjoern_tantau, 
How about a federated link aggregator?
ObviouslyNotBanana, 
With a comment section?
TheGreenGolem, 
It can be definitely done. I think it shouldn’t be too hard to optimize for scale, should it?
ObviouslyNotBanana, Lets just not think about it!
rickyrigatoni, just add more ram
pineapplelover, Didn’t know Lemmy was written in Rust.
Edit: yep, it is github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy
Yoo it uses AGPL v3 too. That’s pretty cool. Love to see it
sirico, 
Let me on the Linux kernel irq I can redo the whole thing!
rockSlayer, It’s just the natural progression of things
unrelatedkeg, I mean you’re not wrong, but it kind of skips a lot of in-between steps.
