After bun [1] this is another high-profile project that was ported to Rust by extensively using LLMs.

Very curious to see how these rewrites play out. Is the LLM foundation solid enough to build upon and iterate on? Or does this cause projects to become unmaintainable because no person understands the implementation anymore?

I'd love to see Asciidoctor vibe-ported to Rust! Have either of these people detailed their methodology & costs?

I think there's a few Rust ones knocking around, some LLM-assisted. I've recently had Claude re-implement the inline parser (https://github.com/oxidecomputer/react-asciidoc) using our large corpus (600+) of AsciiDoc documents

Had it convert it in this and the stock version, compare the output, fix and repeat.
