Welcome to Rust

A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

Key Benefits: Performance, Reliability, Productivity.

Why Rust?

• Memory safety without a garbage collector
• Concurrency without data races
• Zero-cost abstractions
• Excellent tooling (Cargo, rustfmt, clippy)

Ownership System

The ownership system is Rust's most unique feature.

fn main() {
    let s = String::from("hello");
    let s2 = s;  // s is moved, not copied
    // println!("{s}");  // compile error!
}

Ownership enables memory safety without a garbage collector.
