Vitaly Reads: #3, August 2025

I’ve just completed reading an amazingly well-written book called “Refactoring to Rust” by Lily Mara and Joel Holmes, published recently by Manning Publications. I’m pretty sure that the book was supposed to be called “Rewrite it to Rust,” but then someone realized that this is already a meme, so it’d be too much.

Yet, the goal is exactly that – to teach folks how to gradually introduce Rust components to their existing codebases written in C/C++, Java, Python, or JavaScript. Such a goal reflects the intended audience: developers in those languages with little or no knowledge of Rust. One interesting thing, though, is that even Rust professionals might find a lot of interesting details about Rust itself, especially if they are not experienced in such areas as FFI (Foreign Function Interface), Rust-Python interoperability, or WebAssembly – those are the key topics of the book.

(thanks, разумеется, @bravit)
