Rust Programming Language - Building Reliable and Efficient Software
Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
Project Introduction
Summary
Rust is a multi-paradigm, general-purpose programming language designed for performance and safety, especially safe concurrency. It's syntactically similar to C++, but provides memory safety without a garbage collector.
Problem Solved
Traditionally, low-level systems programming required a trade-off between performance and safety, often leading to memory errors, concurrency bugs, and crashes. Rust addresses this by providing compile-time guarantees for safety and concurrency without the overhead of a runtime or garbage collector.
Core Features
Guaranteed Memory Safety (via Ownership & Borrowing)
Guarantees memory safety and thread safety without a garbage collector, preventing common bugs like null pointer dereferencing and data races.
Fearless Concurrency
Enable writing highly concurrent code with minimal overhead, thanks to strong type system and ownership rules that prevent data races at compile time.
Zero-Cost Abstractions
Allows writing high-level abstractions without sacrificing performance, compiling to machine code with performance comparable to C/C++.
Cargo: The Build System and Package Manager
Rust's integrated package manager and build system, simplifying dependency management and project building.
Tech Stack
使用场景
Rust's unique combination of performance and safety makes it ideal for various applications, from resource-constrained devices to large-scale server applications:
