Here are two Rust projects I did back at the 0.8 time frame. I tried to make it more read-friendly than clever hacks. Some of the syntax might be outdated since Rust has changed quickly and I didn't want to keep updating it until 1.0 is frozen.

This is simpler in scope. https://github.com/williamw520/rustymem A gzip implementation and deflate implementation. This is more complicate in scope. https://github.com/williamw520/rustyzip

The recent side projects that can be seen on the web are: Daily productivity goal tracking app, http://dailybadge.com/ Online privacy simple encryption tool, https://boxuptext.com/ Memcache in Rust, https://github.com/williamw520/rustymem GZip in Rust, https://github.com/williamw520/rustyzip I've just finished a work related project and have some time; I will do a cross platform phone app.

Rust is pretty good as a language but things are still changing a lot, especially on the library side. I did a project in Rust as a learning exercise. The language is easy to pick and I was able to hit the ground running from the start. The major learning hurdle I think is the memory model, which is different from most languages out there. Here's my first Rust project after two weeks of on and off hacking. It's a Memcached client library implementing the Memcached protocols in pure Rust. https://github.com/williamw520/rustymem
