Idea: light weight rust as zero build scripting language
Rust Internals [Unofficial]
June 6, 2026
Rust compiler is awesome in the era of AI.
But the only problem is, it's too heavy.
Sometimes, I miss typescript + deno a lot.
* Able to import https://self/hosted/git/code directly
* Zero build
* Type safe
Suddenly, I come up with an idea.
The way to achieve this, why not let rust able to also be zero build scripting language?
deno run http://127.0.0.1:8000/x.ts
rust-repl run http://127.0.0.1:8000/x.rs
Less speed, but imaging zero build + Rust type system!
Just thinking about it already makes me excited.
