Last week, I had the pleasure of attending the RustForge conference in Wellington, New Zealand. While there, I gave a talk about some of my favourite optimisations in the Wild linker.

Rust Forge was so awesome though. Worth it!

Non exhaustive list of crates I learned about at #rustforge that I need to look at adopting for my own workflow

https://release-plz.dev releases Rust crates from CI with a release PR.

https://github.com/obi1kenobi/cargo-semver-checks lints your crate API changes for semver violations. This is actually run by release-plz.

https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/cargo-deny - lints your dependencies. I already use cargo-deny, it got a few shout outs at the conference so shouting it out here.

#rustforge was AWESOME! 🙌

So lucky to be part of a lovely #rustlang conference, here in my home of #wellington, #newzealand. Met lots of interesting people, learned some new Rust, enjoyed sharing my own creative passions. 🦀🥝

Thanks @timClicks for organizing. 💜

Thanks to @9names for helping out getting ratatui working on rp2040 over the past few days.

I now have a small demo app that uses my touch driver implementation and ratatui to implement a simple counter.

Off to the airport to fly back home. #RustForge was great and Wellington put on its best weather leading up to it. Now it’s raining and a bit miserable. Happpy to have met a bunch more rustaceans!
