#Rust πŸ¦€ – Time for Ferris says ! πŸ˜‹

Hi !

Ferris the crab, is the unofficial mascot for Rust.

ferris the crab

If you want to create a cool console app with Ferris holding a banner with a custom message, there is a super cool library that may help.

We need to search in the Rust community’s crate registry for ferris-says, and there it is ferris-says:

And its super easy to use. Let’s show a sample demo showing a β€œ Hello Reactor ” message.
