This post is about a sorting algorithm called Insertion Sort with recursive and iterative implementations in Rust.
Function Accepts Struct That Implements A Trait
This post briefly talks about how to create functions that accept struct instances that implement a specific trait.
Pattern Matching for Declarative Macros in Rust
Macros are like functions but only better. They are triggered based on their patterns using pattern matching for declarative Macros. They group together our codes into a unit (or units) and there are 2 types of macros in Rust – declarative and procedural. This brief post is about declarative macros.

Actix-Web With MySQL Using R2D2 For Connection Pool
R2D2 is a connection pool for Rust applications, e.g., Actix-Web, that use databases like MySQL. Opening and closing a database connection is an expensive operation. With connection pooling, the database connection creation happens once, and the application can reuse it
How to use Command Design Pattern in Rust
This Design Pattern uses commands to wrap and invoke capabilities. A car can run faster and slower. We can have commands AccelerateCommand and DecelerateCommand for increasing and decreasing speed, respectively. We can also have AccelerateAndDecelerateCommand to run both capabilities in a certain order.
