Add Rust tools to RDF-LAMP stack #101

Closed KonradHoeffner closed 2 years ago

KonradHoeffner commented 2 years ago

Rust has good support for basic RDF operations like querying, loading and serializing. With its focus on performance and safety at the same time and modern tooling, the programming language is a great fit for the kind of Semantic Web applications we need. However there are weak points as well: There is no complete HDT support yet and libraries are often still under heavy development.

Should this section be called "Rust libraries" instead of "Rust tools", in accordance with your other suggestion?

KonradHoeffner commented 2 years ago

Yes that would be great! I didn't know if this would be approved so I didn't change it there yet.

KonradHoeffner commented 2 years ago

OK, I changed it.

Great idea, and thanks for the credit ;)

FTR, Oxigraph is both a library and a tool (it can be used as a standalone triple-store and SPARQL endpoint)
