What packaging types are there for Rust? Isn’t everything just source-based through cargo?

Rust and Haskell (I think Haskell counts)

Pantheon desktop from elementaryOS.

You can use it on their distro (Ubuntu based with lots of curated apps) or on its own (you can still get access to their curated apps, just not in the store)

EDIT: Sorry, I misunderstood. You want classic Mac. I’d say get Xfce4 and theme it yourself then.

• PlatiPlus for window manager theme
• Platinum Gtk2 Theme
• Platinum9 for the Icons

Here’s an example: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/4l9tlp/xfce_another_nine_based_os_9_based_theme/

I find Rust crates generally have pretty good docs. Docs.rs is a major time saver

complete dealbreaker issues

Life is and will always be better writing your own Makefiles. It’s literally so easy. I do not get the distaste. Cmake is arcane magic. Bazel is practically written in runes. Makefile is a just a glorified build script, but where you don’t have to use a bunch of if statements to avoid building everything each time.

I can’t even wrap my mind around people who use 60% keyboards and use a bunch of extra function keys let alone anything more drastic

In VR, you are able to place windows anywhere. You have infinite amounts of screen. Look at something like Simula

Bc they’re about to release a VR headset PC that allows just that. It will likely inspire other companies to do so as well

Move to VR and infinite screen space. We’re so close. No doubt once Apple joins the fray it’ll be time

What I said:

You could mull over and discuss a million different ways to get started. The most important thing is to be decisive and just do

We could go on for hours debating what the best beginner language, environment, project, etc is, but the important thing is that they pick something and do it.

I gave them a specific thing to get started on. That’s the important thing.

Learning programming is gonna be hard. They’re gonna face issues no matter what, so like I said:

Is it the best way? Who cares just get started

That’s why I said you missed the point. I don’t think you read my reply at all and just stopped at the first word lol

Rust is renowned for being hard and frustrating to onboard onto. I don’t think this is a wise suggestion.

You missed the point

Pick Rust, learn Bevy, and make a Flappy Bird clone. Is it the best way? Who cares just get started.

Lol is it really free of Western technologies if it’s running on Linux?

Oops lol

Leaving in

Arch does not have a place though. It’s just a more buggy Arch with a worse maintaining team

EDIT: Actually, tbh it’s incorrect to even call Manjaro Arch. That’s an insult to Arch
