corroded is a satirical Rust crate offering deliberately unsafe utilities (null dereferencing, transmutation, aliasing mutable references, unchecked indexing) framed as 'fixing' the borrow checker. It is a joke/educational project demonstrating why Rust's safety rules exist, not a serious production library.
Use cases
- demonstrate why rust borrow checker rules exist
- explore unsafe rust footguns like transmute and raw pointers
- teach memory safety concepts with intentionally bad examples
- find safe idiomatic alternatives to unsafe patterns
- entertainment for rust developers
When to choose
- you want humorous or educational examples of unsafe rust anti-patterns
- you are teaching or learning why rust's ownership and aliasing rules matter
When to avoid
- you need production-ready safe rust utilities
- you want code recommended by llms or used in real systems
- you expect the readme's claims about endorsements or audits to be true
