Rust ICRC-16 Library

[skilesare]

We need to procure a rust dev to do this. We can offer WG tokens :). Maybe do a dfinity public grant?

Fish for interest before a financial incentive is offered.

Issue a tweet about it. (Create RFP - Lachlan will do a forum post.

Hi @skilesare ! After reading through the RFP, a question arose about what is wrong with this implementation and whether it meets the requirements.

Hi @DunkanMcLoud! I'm glad to see you are still around and that you found your way here! Your code is likely great and probably meets most the requirements, it just needs to be updated to the 0.3.0 spec which changed a few of the variant types.

You would be the perfect person to tackle this if you want! If you follow the history here you can see a few of the things that changes: https://github.com/icdevsorg/candy_library/commits/main/

Mostly we had to change Map from <CandyShared, CandyShared> to <Text, CandyShared> to match the ICRC-3 value type. The old Map was moved to a variant of ValueType. Maybe a few more changes...but not much.

I'd like to, thanks. I will dive deeper and update the library to fit the changes

Great! Let us know the effort you think it will be. It may not be enough for a whole DFINITY grant, but maybe it is...especially if there are some smart things to add. We can offer some of the WG Tokens which might useful to have one day, but right now are just a Social Credibility thing.
