zoea
Zoea is a crate to help baby Rustaceans get up and running.
It contains 'easy' buttons for common things like http get requests, key-value database persistence, and Natural Language Processing.
What do you call a baby crab? That's right! you call it a Zoea. Zoea is a package for baby Rustaceans, by a baby Rustacean.
Maybe coding is only a part-time thing for you. Maybe you have learned Python and want to try Rust because you heard all the hype. But then after spending two hours trying to make a simple http request and read the response you think "!$!@$!@# it- Rust is too hard."
If you have felt this way, zoea is for you.
Think of zoea as a brittle, hackish "easy" button
zoea does many different things, favoring ergonimics and simplicity over robustness and flexability. That is why this is the worst crates.io package you will ever outgrow - It helps you build something more complex than Hello World so you can achieve "proof of concept", inspect the code, and then mature into a more natively Rustacean approach.
The only common thread between the various modules in zoea is they are all things the author has struggled with or tried to implement. Here are some highlights:
http requests
key-value database persistence
The Zoea kv_database (key-value) uses a sqlite backend for simple operations.
