Drop-in Redis replacement in Rust with 5M+ GET/s

In plain words

Dragonfly is a Redis-compatible database written in Rust, designed to handle high-throughput workloads. It targets developers and teams who need drop-in Redis replacement functionality with significantly improved performance. The system achieves over 5 million GET operations per second, making it suitable for applications requiring fast in-memory data storage and retrieval at scale.

In the maker’s words, at launch

After the release of Feox DB (https://github.com/mehrantsi/feoxdb), I received a number of questions/requests about a potential service layer on top. I spent the last week and created this Redis compatible server for it which required 2 version releases on Feox itself as well. Benchmark…

  Solidis – Tiny TS Redis client, no deps, for serverless2025 · github.com · ▲71

  Hey everyone! Over the past two years I threw myself back into full-time engineering with a simple goal: write code that gives back to the community. After a lot of late-night FOMO (“AI will do it all for us, right?”) and some painful production incidents, I finally turned my weekend project into an open-source library. [ What is Solidis? ] - Super-light (< 30 KB) RESP2&#x2F;RESP3 client with zero runtime deps and first-class ESM&#x2F;CJS support. - Fully tree-shakable – import only the commands you need. - Written with SOLID principles & full TypeScript typings for every command. - Designed…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Term.everything – Run any GUI app in the terminal▲1,094

  I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input&#x2F;output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

  I recreated Windows XP as my portfolio▲1,032

  Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
