Rust for the Rest of Us: An Interactive Rust Workshop
Rust for the Rest of Us
Rust has been a hot topic in the programming space for quite a while now. Between its unique approach to memory management (Or lack thereof) and it's melting pot approach to language design that takes some of the best features from many other technologies, Rust's feature set is very deliberate and well crafted.
