rust-kanban-api

This is a learning project, learning to use rust to create a simple REST API

🤔 Summary

the idea for the first run is just:

• list and create boards
• list and create columns within those boards

BTW - I am using REST Client - Visual Studio Marketplace here 👆 as a sort of quick-and-dirty Postman / Insomnia equivelent for testing. Its pretty useful 🤷‍♂️

🚀 Running this thing

1. Assuming you have Rust already installed 🙃
2. clone the project locally
3. cargo run
4. Probably should just use the VS Code Extension listed above. If not, you can just look at the dev.http file to get an idea of the format of the HTTP requests.
5. Profit

📚 About My Learning Path So Far

I managed to do this after finishing Ultimate Rust Crash Course | Udemy and making it maybe 50% of the way through Ultimate Rust 2: Intermediate Concepts | Udemy Then looking at a few tutorials / samples / and existing code. Also, to be honest GitHub Copilot helped! 😉

I plan to finish Ultimate Rust 2 and also Rustlings, which as you can see from my fork I have gotten about half way through "Move Semantics"!

✅ TODO (Someday):

• add cards any one of those columns
• move the cards from column to column
• users
• EDITING THINGS!
• privacy
• you know, everything that would make this useful (beyond a learning project)
