Solana + Rust = NFTS!

Authors

For the last weeks, I started learning about NFT and finished these two courses from build buildspace.so

Create and Deploy your first Solana dApp

Create a backend using Rust, interacting with Solana and Vercel react for the front end. app github

Build your own Store w/ Solana Pay

Introduction to create your own NFT store or anything and pay using Solana! app github

Here are the things I learned.

  • Create web3, build rust application with Solana, and set it up through Windows WSL.
  • How phantom wallet interacts with the front end.

So I can build my own NFT store!

But wait, aside from NFTs, what are the things that can build from Rust aside from NFT? Do big companies already use it? What are the issues are Rust stands out for and trying to solve?

Then I stumble upon this video:

Rust is interesting, but does it really make sense to me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHMfRFkhv-w

And also Andriod team released a comprehensive tutorial for it. Welcome to Comprehensive Rust

In the last part, the big companies started using it to solve the memory issue from their apps and clearly explain how to save time/resources while both clients' and developers' satisfaction.

Like the remarks, the only cons for Rust are the steep learning code and new ways to implement things.

I guess I need to check the release from the Andriod team and keep adding new features from those two pet projects :)
