Mini Redis

A Redis-compatible server implemented in Rust to explore TCP networking, protocol parsing, and concurrent systems.

Rust

Overview

A Redis-compatible server written in Rust as part of the CodeCrafters Build Your Own Redis challenge.

The project is an opportunity to learn systems programming concepts through implementing a networked service.

Technology

  • Language: Rust
  • Networking: TCP sockets
  • Protocol: Redis Serialization Protocol (RESP)

Learning Objectives

  • Understand TCP client-server communication
  • Implement command parsing and serialization
  • Manage connections and buffers
  • Explore concurrent client handling
  • Understand how networked services maintain state

Development

Currently in progress.

I’ll update this page with implementation details, supported commands, and architectural decisions as development continues.
