One month. One hour a day. That's all it takes to start writing Rust code!

Learn Rust in a Month of Lunches teaches you the essential skills of Rust. By the time you're done learning, you'll be able to:

  • Build real software in Rust
  • Understand messages from the compiler and Clippy, Rust's coding coach
  • Make informed decisions on the right types to use in any context
  • Make sense of the Rust standard library and its commonly used items
  • Use external Rust "crates"; (libraries) for common tasks
  • Work with crates that use async Rust
  • Write simple declarative macros
  • Explore test driven development in Rust

About the technology

Developers love Rust! Rust is a true general purpose language, suitable for everything from system programming to web applications and games. It delivers the performance of low-level languages like C/C++ while providing memory safety, type safety, and a compiler that makes it difficult to compile bad code. Plus, Rust makes it easy to refactor your code without worrying about breaking anything. It's a truly hassle-free programming experience.
