Sommario/riassunto

The focus of Richard Zgusta’s The Peoples of Northeast Asia through Time is the formation of indigenous and cultural groups of coastal northeast Asia, including the Ainu, the “Paleoasiatic” peoples, and the Asiatic Eskimo. Most chapters begin with a summary of each culture at the beginning of the colonial era, which is followed by an interdisciplinary reconstruction of prehistoric cultures that have direct ancestor-descendant relationships with the modern ones. An additional chapter presents a comparative discussion of the ethnographic data, including subsistence patterns, material culture, social organization, and religious beliefs, from a diachronic viewpoint. Each chapter includes maps and extensive references.

Chapter 1: Rust in the Web World -- Chapter 2: Developing Websites -- Chapter 3: REST APIs -- Chapter 4: Chatting in Real Time with WebSocket -- Chapter 5: Going Serverless -- Chapter 6: High Performance Web Frontend using WebAssembly.

Sommario/riassunto

Go beyond the basics of Rust and build web and serverless cloud applications. The applications explained in this practical book include web sites, RESTful APIs, a real-time web chat application, and frontend application with WebAssembly. Each chapter is organized in the following format: what this kind of application looks like; requirements for the example program; an introduction to the Rust libraries used; step-by-step implementation of the example program, including common pitfalls and best practices; and a brief comparison of libraries and frameworks in the same domain. This book will open your eyes to the world of practical web applications of Rust. After reading the book, you will be able to apply your Rust knowledge to build your own web projects. You will: Build dynamic websites with databases Build RESTful APIs Write a WebSocket server that can power a real-time chat app in Rust Discover the benefits of serverless computing using Amazon Web Service's Rust support Compile Rust to WebAssembly for high-



performance frontend applications.
