Rewrite in Rust #1

Python is totally not hipster enough for us :wink:

dbrgn commented 8 years ago

What library would you use to fetch the webcam, and to write the text on the image?

Cross compilation is a PITA, btw. (That will probably change in the future.)

rnestler commented 8 years ago

A library for image processing exists: https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/image Also a wrapper for v4l2: https://github.com/loyd/rscam Cross compiling is most of the time a PITA to setup, but would be interesting to do.

Just found this issue on my https://github.com/issues page and had a nice laugh about our (my) Rust Evangelism Strikeforce attitude in 2015 before it was cool :laughing:
