+
+ <body>
+ <p>Support in the Ports Collection for applications written in
+ the Rust programming language that use Rust's package
+ manager Cargo was added, via a new <tt>USES=cargo</tt>
+ setting. The work is based on the <tt>cargo</tt> module
+ from the OpenBSD ports tree.</p>
+
+ <p>This should significantly ease the porting of Rust
+ applications, as previously porters had to create their own
+ tarball of the application's dependencies or find other
+ manual ways of bringing them in.</p>
+
+ <p>Several new ports were added that use it, for example:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Alacritty, a GPU-accelerated terminal emulator</li>
+
+ <li>Exa, a modern replacement for <tt>ls</tt></li>
+
+ <li>Ripgrep, a line-oriented search tool that combines the
+ usability of The Silver Searcher with the raw speed of GNU
+ <tt>grep</tt></li>
+ </ul>
