Neo4j Live: Neo4rs – A Native Rust Driver for Neo4j
Rust is becoming an increasingly important programming language, powering critical infrastructure and libraries across various technological domains.
At Neo4j Labs, we are incubating a native driver for Rust—neo4rs.
In this session, Paul will showcase the driver's integration into the Rust ecosystem, how it compares to an official product driver, and what the future plans are.
Guest: Paul Horn
The driver is available on Github at https://github.com/neo4j-labs/neo4rs
