Understand it, then run it

The Rust community released several tooling updates this week: TangleGuard, redb v3.0.0, wrkflw v0.7.0, serde‑ply, and warp v0.4. These are new crates or new versions of existing crates that help you build, test, and run Rust projects. They are not part of the Rust language itself, but they make it easier to monitor software architecture, store data, run GitHub Actions locally, serialize Ply files, and build web services. No changes to the Rust compiler or standard library are involved.

Run it now

Todayrust
// This program simply prints the names of the tooling updates announced this week.
// It demonstrates that the updates exist, but it does not use any of the new APIs
// because they are not part of the standard library or the Rust compiler.
fn main() {
    println!("Tooling updates:");
    println!("- TangleGuard");
    println!("- redb v3.0.0");
    println!("- wrkflw v0.7.0");
    println!("- serde‑ply");
    println!("- warp v0.4");
}

What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)

Tooling updates:
- TangleGuard
- redb v3.0.0
- wrkflw v0.7.0
- serde‑ply
- warp v0.4

Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
