"Rust is a systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents almost all crashes*, and eliminates data races."









* In theory. Rust is a work-in-progress and may do anything it likes up to and including eating your laundry.
Control / Performance Safety C C++ Rust Go Java ML Haskell


 Features  


  • zero-cost abstractions
  • closures
  • generics
  • doesn't have null
  • super rich type system
  • pattern matching
  • guaranteed memory safety




 Write a browser 


 Write an operating system
