In Detail

Are you in awe of how Rust systematically eliminates entire classes of bugs and security vulnerabilities and are looking to take your first step toward understanding this diverse yet fun programming language?

This video course will get you started with Rust and teach you how to write high-performance code without worrying about crashes.

The course starts with the background and origin of Rust and explains why it is a great programming language. Next, you’ll explore the fundamental concepts of Rust such as cargo, variables, and functions, and get a walkthrough of Rust’s primitive types and control flow. Moving ahead, you’ll cover essential aspects of Rust, including ownership and borrowing with the help of interesting examples. Later, you’ll get to grips with structs, traits, collections, and enums. Toward the end, you’ll work through exercises to learn about closures and threads, and a project name Invader to get hands-on experience.

By the end of this course, you’ll be well-versed with Rust programming fundamentals and have the skills you need to write error-free code.

Nathan Stocks​

Nathan Stocks has been a software developer for over 20 years. He fell in love with Rust in 2016 and began teaching it the following year. He experiments with Indie Game development in both Rust and more traditional game engines. He has used Python professionally for most of his career and even written his own test runner called Green. Nathan loves teaching Rust when he gets the chance, especially in person at conferences and corporate boot camps. If Nathan had to pick his favorites, they would be: Rust, Python, PostgreSQL, Linux (server), macOS (desktop), vim and emacs, and whichever IDE has the best Rust support now.
