As Rust projects grow, managing private crates becomes a real headache. Teams struggle with inconsistent versioning, fragile dependencies, and cumbersome workflows that slow down development. In this talk, I’ll walk through how these challenges can be solved with Rust and CrabHub.

What if we took Rust... on-chain? 🦀
In 2024, I added the `Option::as_slice` and `Option::as_mut_slice` methods to libcore. This talk is about what motivated the addition, and looks into the no less than 4 different implementations that made up the methods. It also shows that even without a deep understanding of all compiler internals, it is possible to add changes both to the compiler and standard library.
This technical talk examines the most prevalent pain points facing Rust web developers today and explores how the community is addressing them.
