Distributing Ironmind + Rust Continuous Integration

| 11 Minutes
Featuring Cargo, Snap, and Homebrew Believe it or not, I’d like people to use my software, especially Ironmind. I’m finally reaching a point in the project where I feel content with it. So it’s time to share it with the world. Unit Tests Cargo Test The first step was setting up automated unit tests to build and test my project each time I merged with the master branch. Fortunately, Rust’s build system, Cargo, makes this super easy.…
