HelixDB From Zero
Stop stitching three databases together. HelixDB is a Rust-native graph plus vector engine that holds your nodes, your embeddings, your typed edges, and your key-value documents in one process — no separate Postgres, no separate Qdrant, no separate Neo4j. This course walks a Rust-fluent engineer from helix init through a typed HelixQL schema, the helix check and helix compile pre-deploy gates, side-by-side graph traversal and vector search in the same query language, and a typed Rust client that calls a live HelixDB instance with four runtime contracts. Every primitive you meet is wired into a
