    Arcticwolf - A rust based user space NFS server by vcheng

    Description

    Rust has similar performance to C. Also, have a better async IO module and high integration with io_uring. This project aims to develop a user-space NFS server based on Rust.

    Goals

    • Get an understanding of how cargo works
    • Get an understanding of how XDR was generated with xdrgen
    • Create the RUST-based NFS server that supports basic operations like mount/readdir/read/write

    Mail client with mailing list workflow support in Rust by acervesato

    Description

    To create a mail user interface using Rust programming language, supporting mailing list patches workflow. I know, aerc is already there, but I would like to create something simpler, without integrated protocols. Just a plain user interface that is using some crates to read and create emails which are fetched and sent via external tools.

    I already know Rust, but not the async support, which is needed in this case in order to handle events inside the mail folder and to send notifications.

    Goals

    • simple user interface in the style of aerc, with some vim keybindings for motions and search
    • automatic run of external tools (like mbsync) for checking emails
    • automatic run commands for notifications
    • apply patch set from ML
    • tree-sitter support with styles

    Build a terminal user-interface (TUI) for Agama by IGonzalezSosa

    Description

    Officially, Agama offers two different user interfaces. On the one hand, we have the web-based interface, which is the one you see when you run the installation media. On the other hand, we have a command-line interface. In both cases, you can use them using a remote system, either using a browser or the agama CLI.

    We would expect most of the cases to be covered by this approach. However, if you cannot use the web-based interface and, for some reason, you cannot access the system through the network, your only option is to use the CLI. This interface offers a mechanism to modify Agama's configuration using an editor (vim, by default), but perhaps you might want to have a more user-friendly way.

    Goals

    The main goal of this project is to built a minimal terminal user-interface for Agama. This interface will allow the user to install the system providing just a few settings (selecting a product, a storage device and a user password). Then it should report the installation progress.

    Conclusions

    We have summarized our conclusions in a pull request. It includes screenshots ;-) We did not implement all the features we wanted, but we learn a lot during the process. We know that, if needed, we could write a TUI for Agama and we have an idea about how to build it. Good enough.

    Exploring Rust's potential: from basics to security by sferracci

    Description

    This project aims to conduct a focused investigation and practical application of the Rust programming language, with a specific emphasis on its security model. A key component will be identifying and understanding the most common vulnerabilities that can be found in Rust code.

    Goals

    Achieve a beginner/intermediate level of proficiency in writing Rust code. This will be measured by trying to solve LeetCode problems focusing on common data structures and algorithms. Study Rust vulnerabilities and learning best practices to avoid them.
