Rust gives you two supported ways to build on Autonomi.
Use the Rust SDK when you want Rust code to talk to antd just like the other SDK languages do.
Choose the Rust SDK if you want:
the same daemon-based model used by Python, Node.js / TypeScript, Go, and the other SDKs
REST or gRPC access through a stable local gateway
a Rust app that fits into the broader SDK workflow
See Rust SDK.
Use ant-core when you want direct, daemon-free Rust access to networking, uploads, and payment flows.
Choose native Rust with ant-core if you want:
direct control over the network client in Rust
no daemon process between your code and the network
access to native Rust types, local devnet helpers, and direct client tuning such as loopback and timeout control
See Build Directly in Rust and Rust Library Reference.
