PEP 509 introduced a private ma_version_tag field for dictionaries to allow optimizations in CPython and extension libraries. This PEP proposes to rescind PEP 509 and declare the field an implementation detail, as it has already been superseded by alternatives. This will further allow the field to be reused for future optimization. ⌘ Read more

Decided to use FLTK crate, that one is easy to get set up, works well.
Now I have to figure out how to make a class that holds the gui elements I need.
I want to parse the yarn status file, then show the statuses, then once that works I’ll make it fetch it online etc. Will take some time, but I feel a bit more motivated (for now) to do this in rust.

working with c++, windows, cmake and wxwidgets reminded me on why I want to learn more rust. rust and crates makes it really easy to get up and running, crossplatform. scrapping what I did today, I’ll start over and force my self to learn rust.
