amos“every rust project has a billion dependencies”
oh no they made code composable oh nooooooo should we call someone??
rust has a lot of problems, but let me tell you: “micro libraries” isn’t one
splitting packages per concern is good for build performance, it’s good for review, it’s good for API evolution.
the problems are technical (compiler perf), financial (funding OSS), human etc.
lime!@fasterthanlime micro libs are only an actual problem in an environment like a browser, where code is fetched, tracked, glued together and interpreted for each user. in rust it just makes the build process look busy.
