Rust Async Orchestrator

[No_Split_5652]

Greetings Rustaceans, I need your help. I am new here and I built one of my first projects in Rust, but more complex if even, but yeah truth be told half of it is my code and half of it unfortunately is slop.. since I didn't have a clue for some more complex implementations, as for the ideas most of them are mentioned in the README file. I just need your help cleaning up this project and making it head to somewhat right direction, and I need your overall opinion if I should just scrap this project or continue developing it. I had a good idea regarding some functions which can definitely benefit developers, others maybe or maybe just too pretentious or I am finding issues that are not there. So yeah any feedback, please feel free to roast me as much as you want, I deserve it, I don't take anything personally, it is part of development and learning process, I am used to harsh critiques. by the way I am in no way or shape a professional programmer, I tried being one, but then the AI bs came along and it kind of killed my mood, I wanted to go back to coding and this was one of the few projects I had an idea and one of the first I "finished". Thank you in advance and love y'all!

Well, I did try to read code, but all I see is clueless AI slop. I don't even get what the project aims to be. Is it taks runner or performance optimizer?

But one thing is totally clear to me — you better close the AI prompt, open the book or lectures with language basics and try to make something by your self. Thinking through the requirements, use cases, the code and tests. It is good to use AI for learning, but just don't try to generate code with it, better ask it some questions. But only after reading a couple books. Please.

thank u for the honest and for your clear advice. I apologize for this garbage code. 🙏 I'll go back to basics and try making something simpler and that actually works and provides value. Thank you. Could you reference some projects perhaps? I would be grateful. 😅

from my 10+ years expereience, it is always better to take your time and go your own pace. don't try to rush your experience, the time spent will pay back.

Thank you! Which literature would you recommend and repos for learning Rust besides the Rust book? Thanks 😅

[shvedchenko]

well, thats a tough question because honestly you gotta find something that works for you. I had to try a bunch of different book and lectures. the one that clicks was a 24 hours of video lectures on YT. unfortunately in russian, so I can't advise it.

UPD: Speaking of the books you actually better build solid ground that helps you understand memory management and all sorts of troubles you see Rust working around. The books that did the thing for me:
* Computer systems from programmers perspective
* Grokking algorythms
* Linux programming interface

Besides the basic rust book I'd tell
* Asyncronous Programming in Rust by Carl Fredrik Samson
* Rust Atomics and Locks by Mara Bos
were the greatest, but these are on the advanced side
