Functional programming promotes a coding style that helps developers write code that is short, concise, and maintainable. For example, pattern matching allows us to elegantly match and assert specific conditions for some code to execute:
Install Rust (Use this link to download the right version for your operating system. You may also have to download Xcode. On macOS, you can get this C compiler by typing: $ xcode-select --install into the terminal. If you're using a pc, you may have to download C++ build tools.
Change Your Settings (Mandatory) Finally, the most important and strangely hidden setting that you must change to have VS Code running properly is changing how Code Runner actually runs your code. Many people have tried coding the Guessing Game activity from the Rust book. Their code resulted in errors even when they copy and pasted the solution (1) (2). There have been many "answers" as to why this is happening. None of them are correct. You need to go to extensions, Code Runner, press the gear, Extension Settings, Code-runner: Executor Map (edit in settings.json), and finally change "rust": "cd $dir && rustc $fileName && $dir$fileNameWithoutExt" to "rust": "cargo run # $fileName". This makes Code Runner load the crates you need before you run the code, and will fix the error.
One addition:
Install the CodeLLDB (Linux, OSX) or C/C++ (Windows) extension if you don't want to println! debug your code all the time but rather use a fully featured debugger for step by step execution.
Using git lens extension, setup code runner to use cargo instead of rustc (google it), using crates extension to stay up to date to the latest crate version and their docs, the tabnine AI assistant has been cool.
I agree the type inlay hints are visual clutter, and better removed most of the time, but they can be useful when you want to quickly check a variable's type. They can be set to off by default, to be revealed with a keypress (oddly hard-coded to ctrl-alt/option) with this setting: "editor.inlayHints.enabled": "offUnlessPressed".
This isn't needed for writing Rust in VSCode. From a quick look at the README it seems to be a way to run code directly from the editor. I'd be interested to know how you use this, and what advantages you find it offers over just cargo run or cargo test in a terminal.
Main focus of the course (and main takeaway for me) is the code organization and use of poncho projects. The apps are divided into separate projects and you go through the creation of three different clients (CLI, Phoenix, LiveView) for the hangman game without major changes to the core logic, which is great imho. You also implement a game server as a service that can be run on a different beam instance.
Because it might be, that it is not even a Stream (in elixirs understanding of the word). The documentation claims to use the kernels sendfile if available. In theory the most efficient way to get the file from disk to socket, as this is a kernel native operation.
this code works me and lets me create chunked file with size that I want. I just tested it with png file. I understand phoenix handle my request but it is auto, not with custom chunked file size. now my code has a problem in phoenix controller
The project was funded on Kickstarter in 2016. (It took a bit too long to finish.) The source code is available on SourceForge. The original soundtrack is available on Bandcamp. If you are having trouble, or would like to discuss something else, there is a Discord server.
UPDATE: I built the game myself with your source code so I don't know if such solution is already in the launcher.I saw your game entirely written in java which is a bit hard to implement such trick.
Unfortunately, there is no way to enable this feature from pure Java code. To overcome this, the official release uses the Groan Autodeployer, which is an executable wrapper that is able to enable the switch in native code before starting the Java Virtual Machine. The Groan Autodeployer is available on my SourceForge profile if you want to set this up yourself. But, the documentation and configuration is not very user friendly and please understand I do not offer technical support for this.
The source code is published under the MPL 2.0. You will find the link to the freely available source code if you read the game description. This link can also be found under More information > Links > Source code.
If you have the knowledge required to compile the game, then you can currently obtain a complete copy of the game for free. However, regarding the legality of redistribution: The source code is MPL, but the assets (e.g. the 'res' directory) are, at the time of writing, all rights reserved. This is in part because there are certain assets that I do not own and whose licenses are incompatible with the MPL. You have every right granted by the MPL for all forms of the code, but redistributing a copy and including the assets is, at best, on very shaky legal ground.
That said, I have no intention of fighting redistribution as long as it's not done in extremely bad faith, such as publishing a complete copy on a digital game storefront, or claiming that you made the game. Giving a copy to your friends is fine (and reusing any and all parts of my code is fine), but please encourage anyone who enjoys my work to consider buying the game to support me.

The Blockly library adds an editor to your app that represents coding concepts as interlocking blocks. Blockly generates simple, syntactically-correct code from the blocks in the editor, which your app can use to run games, control robots, or do anything else your imagination can concieve.
Blockly allows web pages to include a visual code editor for any of Blockly's five supported programming languages, or your own. In Blockly Games, pictured here, users can solve a maze using Blockly's editor on the right.
Amazon CodeWhisperer generates code suggestions ranging from snippets to full functions in real time in the IDE based on your comments and existing code. It also supports CLI completions and natural-language-to-bash translation in the command line.
Scan your code to identify hard-to-find security vulnerabilities and get code suggestions to help remediate the identified issues. Generative AI-powered code suggestions are tailored to your application code, so you can quickly accept fixes with confidence and focus on higher-value work.
Dialyzer is something that eventually everyone hears about in the Elixir community. It's a static code analysis tool that has both fans and detractors, and with good reasons on both sides! We talk with Noah Betzen about how he brought Dialyzer to several mature Elixir projects. He wanted the benefits of finding and fixing bugs and to prevent new problems from being added. He shared tools, strategies and other resources for how to get started without stopping everything to fix all the existing problems. If you've ever tried to add Dialyzer to a project and aborted, then this discussion may give you the courage and the tools to try again!
Zed maintains a full syntax tree for every buffer as you type, enabling precise code highlighting, auto-indent, a searchable outline view, and structural selection. Zed also speaks the Language Server Protocol to provide autocompletion, code navigation, diagnostics, and refactorings.
With Zed, multiple developers can navigate and edit within a shared workspace. This makes it easy to have nuanced, real-time conversations about any part of your codebase, whether the code in question was committed last year or hasn't yet been saved to disk.
When you join a teammate's project, you can navigate and edit as if the code is on your local machine. Open any file, type with low latency, and interact with language servers. It all works seamlessly, whether you're working with someone at the next desk or on a different continent.
Jump to a teammate's location and follow them around the code, then switch roles and have them follow you. It's a great way to review changes or help a new teammate get oriented in your codebase. You can also use the built-in screen sharing to follow someone outside of Zed to view documentation or experiment with an app in development.
Performance and power mean nothing without reliability. That's why we've subjected Zed's critical code paths to randomized tests that help us find and fix rare edge cases. By creating controlled chaos in development, we achieve stability in production.
I'll start by saying I love elixir as a language. I also love ecto. But when it comes to building user experiences, I'm going to choose a JavaScript web framework like Remix 100% of the time. Modern UX is just so much easier to build in a JS framework because browsers run JavaScript.
