Add links to implementations in other lanugages #49
Conversation
The Go library is the reference implementation, though not everyone uses Go. That's why it's useful to link to other implementations so people can use KSUID in the language of their choice.

Hi @tasn, are you aware if there is any KSUID implementation in Swift ? |
|
There is one on github, but with 0 stars, and haven't been developed in a while, so I didn't want to include it. |
|
Btw, @rbranson, would you mind taking a look at this? It's an easy review. |
|
Not sure if @rbranson has merge access to this repo anymore. I don't have strong feelings about this personally, although if we do add it, I don't personally feel that it warrants being before the description about what a KSUID is. @achille-roussel: what do you feel? |
|
Thanks for the feedback @abraithwaite! I can move it wherever, I just put it next to the "Install" so it's next to the Go one. Though I can also see a strong case for moving it elsewhere. Let me know where and I'll move it. |
|
Agree with @abraithwaite that we should probably put this further down in the README 👍 |
|
I moved it all the way to the bottom. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to change. |
|
Thanks for reviewing! |
When I created segmentio#49 I used the rust implementation that I thought was best based on looking at github/crates.io Though having actually used it now, it's very much lacking, so I ended up implementing a new one that has a saner internal representation, integrates with the rest of the Rust ecosystem, and tests a good chunk of the KSUID value space for correctness, as can be seen in: https://github.com/svix/rust-ksuid/blob/main/tests/test_kuids.txt
