ABOUT  RUST

A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

Rust is a multi-paradigm, general-purpose programming language designed for performance and safety, especially safe concurrency. Rust is syntactically similar to C++, but can guarantee memory safety by using a borrow checker to validate references.

Rust is blazingly fast and memory-efficient: with no runtime or garbage collector, it can power performance-critical services, run on embedded devices, and easily integrate with other languages.

Rust has great documentation, a friendly compiler with useful error messages, and top-notch tooling — an integrated package manager and build tool, smart multi-editor support with auto-completion and type inspections, an auto-formatter, and more.

Develop safety-first, performant, memory-access applications with Rust.
 

Rust is a relatively new language designed to avoid some of the common problems which arise with many traditional programming languages. 

Rust is already widely supported on many Operating Systems and allows creation of a wide range of application types and is therefore rapidly gaining popularity.

With our RUST Training Course, you can: 

• Use Cargo to create and run a Rust project
• Explore the Rust features
• Installing Rust and tools (Cargo, Format, clippy and rustdoc)
• Understand Rust safety features
• Create Reusable Objects
• Learn to develop efficient, safe application
   

RUST FAQs

What is Rust programming good for?

Rust is a low-level programming language with direct access to hardware and memory, which makes it a great solution for embedded and bare-metal development. You can use Rust to write operation systems or microcontroller applications.

Is Rust better than C++?

This multi-paradigm, high-level, general-purpose programming language is famous for its strong safe concurrency capabilities. You can easily notice similarities between Rust and C++ syntax, but Rust offers a higher level of memory safety without using a garbage collector.

Is Rust An OOP?

Object-oriented programs are made up of objects. An object packages both data and the procedures that operate on that data. The procedures are typically called methods or operations. Under this definition, then, Rust is object-oriented: structs and enums have data and impl blocks provide methods on structs and enums.

Is Rust good for robotics?

This makes Rust a highly-efficient, extremely safe language that also allows low-level access, something well-suited to the world of robotics where resource constraints and code safety are critical. Rust is an obvious choice for robotics, but the transition to platforms written in Rust will take time.

What programs are written in Rust?

Threat X Web Application Firewall (WAF) and central analysis engine are written in Rust, facilitating real time analysis of high bandwidth web applications.

Is Rust a frontend or backend?

Both languages compete in terms of backend web development, and it's a fierce competition. Golang and Rust are new languages, have growing communities, and are fast and efficient. When it comes to microservice architectures, frameworks, and apps, Rust and Go are household names on the backend.

Is Rust good for web dev?

Rust is one of the most popular language for developers due to its open-source, fast, reliable, and high-performance features. When building a new API in Rust, it is important to consider the benefits and drawbacks of web frameworks for both frontend and backend development.

Why are developers in the Blockchain space keen on using Rust?

We asked a Rust Developer this question.... this is what he said...

"Frankly, a lot of it is because they saw other people doing it. There’s a lot of cargo culting in the blockchain space, and just playing with more exciting technologies in order to attract people. But more usefully, it’s mostly about Rust’s combination of performance and safety; a decade ago, you could choose at most one of the two, but now Rust has demonstrated that dichotomy to be false. Some parts of your blockchain systems are performance-sensitive, but they’re also extremely high-value targets (they’re guarding large amounts of money with this code), so using a memory-unsafe language is unnecessary risk. Multiple studies have analysed the number of critical security vulnerabilities that would have been completely avoided by memory safety, and they’ve all found the answer to be in the vicinity of 70%.

Rust is also just a whole lot more pleasant to work in than the traditional high-performance languages, and its particular safety guarantees also allow other performance improvements to be done safely that would be especially dangerous, often stupidly so, in other languages (hence one slogan: “fearless concurrency”).

Also notable in why blockchain people *use* Rust more than most other domains is that blockchain is fresher ground, and so is willing to risk more on a less mature ecosystem if there’s cause to do so, and also that they’re trying to attract developers with exciting tech, and Rust is a popular language that people like to work with."
