I decided to adventure myself in Tauri development for a personal project, I read the entire Rust official book and followed the exercises. When I first started developing it was like if nothing I learned helped for real life projects.
Now after getting betting up every single time I touch my project, it seems I’m catching things slowly.
But I’ve never seen such a hard modern language, I used C and C++ before and it’s incomparable.
Yeah. That’s a huge issue rust has. However, it can’t be solved with Rc.
You either do it in safe rust, by “cheating” the borrow checker and storing a size offset of the buffer instead of a reference. Or just use unsafe rust and store a raw pointer alongside the buffer.
I mean, I don’t think that is a big issue, most of the time you don’t need self reference, and when you absolutely need there is a way even if not very simple one
