1Password, the famous password management tool, published a blog about
|
||
|
|
releasing a beta version of their tool [for
|
||
|
|
Linux](https://blog.1password.com/1password-for-linux-beta-is-now-open/).

Now, we always welcome a tool for Linux, specially the ones with names already
|
||
|
|
know in the market, 'cause that gives the public a perception that Linux
|
||
|
|
exists and that larger companies give a fuck about it, and so on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But what caught my eye is this line: "Its backend is written completely in
|
||
|
|
Rust". Not just because I'm a fan of Rust, but because
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. the application doesn't look like a native application; it looks like an
|
||
|
|
Electron application;
|
||
|
|
2. this kind of action with Rust reminds of another technology that also wasn't
|
||
|
|
well known, but caught engineers attention, and then, suddenly, it took off
|
||
|
|
and now is widely used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That technology was Linux. And the same thing seems to be happening to Rust.
|
||
|
|
And this gives me a lot of hope in the future.
