Memory-safe systems programming language
Rust is a systems programming language focused on safety, speed, and concurrency without a garbage collector. This roadmap covers Rust fundamentals, ownership and borrowing system, error handling, concurrency, and building performant applications. Rust's unique ownership model prevents memory bugs and data races at compile time, making it ideal for systems programming, embedded systems, WebAssembly, and performance-critical applications. It's used by Mozilla, Microsoft, Amazon, and Cloudflare. Rust developers are highly sought after for building secure, fast, and reliable systems.
