Introduction to Rust

According to Stack Overflow survey, Rust is most loved language, and is redefining the systems programming. Created by Graydon Hoare in 2006 at Mozilla with a fresh take on performance and safety, released its first version in 2015.

Why Rust?

  • Memory safety: Does not have garbage collector, yet no pointer errors or buffer overflows. Thanks to borrow checker.
  • Concurrency: Catches data races at compile time.
  • Cross-Platform: From embedded system to Web development, Rust does it all.
  • Blazing Fast: C/C++ like performance with no cost abstraction.
  • Vibrant Ecosystem: Crates makes the development a breeze.

Key Features

  • Ownership and borrow checking for memory safety.
  • Fearless concurrency with thread safety.
  • Seamless C interoperability.

Rust is perfect for building fast, reliable, and safe software. Ready to try it? 🦀
