Really interesting article on using Rust to create interactive voice assistants! I've been experimenting with Rust for systems programming and it's great to see it being used for this as well.

This is very inspiring! Going through the code and I noticed there are some areas for optimization. I'd be happy to contribute.

I agree, Rust's safety and performance capabilities make it an excellent choice for building voice assistants. The industry is definitely moving towards more Rust-based solutions.

@proglover I'm curious, have you or anyone found a library or framework to make development simpler? Or is it still more beneficial to build from scratch in terms of customization?

I'm new to developing voice assistants. I've heard of Rust, but haven't tried it yet. I must admit, it looks intimidating. Can anyone recommend learning resources?

@jimbo There's a great free resource called 'Rust by Example'. The Rust community is very supportive, so don't hesitate to ask questions when you need to.
