About Project Hematite
An open education site for future Rust developers. Each unit of learning is a checkpoint that explicitly declares what you should understand first.
The idea: DAG-based knowledge management
Instead of a flat list of articles, content is arranged as a directed acyclic graph (DAG). Every checkpoint lists its prerequisites, so learners always know what to study next and external tools can reason about progress along the same structure.
Features
- DAG-based prerequisites — cycles are detected and rejected at build time.
- Multi-language content — English (primary) and Japanese, with graceful fallback when a translation is pending.
- Five learning levels — from elementary foundations to cutting-edge topics.
- Public graph API — the full prerequisite graph and alias map are served as static, content-hashed JSON for external progress trackers and dashboards.
- Full-text search — powered by Pagefind, fully static, no server required.
- Math support — KaTeX renders inline and display math in checkpoint pages.
