About the technology
Rust is a modern programming language that offers low-level performance comparable to C, but without the complex syntax, memory management issues, and code safety concerns. Rust combines a powerful compiler, a rich library ecosystem, and high performance.
About the book
“Learn Rust in a Month of Lunches” divides learning the language into 24 small lessons, each of which can be completed in an hour or less. The examples are easy to understand, allowing you to quickly transition from zero knowledge of Rust to mastering asynchronous programming and creating your own macros. The code from the book can be run in the browser environment Rust Playground, so you won't need to set up a development environment. It’s the easiest way to start programming in Rust!
