A practical Rust course by @chatsidhartha, especially for JavaScript developers. Preorders open!

@jhicks154 Hey Jamie! Rest of the course drops this year, over the next couple of months

@RuslanZavacky @chatsidhartha Hi there! I am. Things haven’t gotten according to plan but I’m finishing this and definitely going to ship before the end of the year.

[Rust for JavaScript Developers @rustforjsdev]

@nerdess @chatsidhartha It’s fast, safer and compiles down to little binaries. It’s a tool like any other so not necessary the right one for every job but is for many.

@TheLarkInn @rustlang Given that any one of these fail, I’d do Vec<Result<Data>>

So you always return a collection of responses, whether Result or Error

Rust’s ownership rules

1. Every value in Rust must have a single owner
2. A value can have any number of immutable references
3. You can only create a single mutable reference to a value
4. If there’s a mutable reference to a value, you cannot have an immutable reference to it

[Guillermo Rauch @rauchg]

Rust is re-defining Infrastructure engineering. We're seeing the foundations of our tools and services get refactored to it, from CLI to Cloud.

Very excited about resources like @rustforjsdev that make it more accessible to everyone!

[Ives van Hoorne @CompuIves]

I'm beyond excited to announce that CodeSandbox now has support for the most loved language... @rustlang!! 🦀🦀

Start a new Rust VM in 2 seconds, with:

It’s exciting how much of modern JavaScript tooling is adopting Rust!

There’s swc, turbopack, turborepo rewrite (nice work @vercel friends), the new parcel CSS compiler and now the new Tailwind compiler.

It’s great to see.

[Adam Wathan @adamwathan]

Whipped up a tiny abstraction to make it easier to run the Tailwind test suite against both our stable engine and the new Rust stuff... Couldn't resist the name 🏒🥅

[Rust for JavaScript Developers @rustforjsdev]

Getting the finishing touches in on the Building an API server module.

We’re going to build an API that runs on @flydotio and persists answers to Postgres for quiz questions for the course.

Coming next week!

🦀 It's "Rust", not "RUST".

@AT290629 @chatsidhartha Yay!

[Rust for JavaScript Developers @rustforjsdev]

@Tom_Marien @chatsidhartha Think of it as any shared String that would be expensive to recreate over and over again

[Rust for JavaScript Developers @rustforjsdev]

@BahlulHasanli @chatsidhartha Thank you for the feedback! You should check out the rest of the course if you enjoyed the language.

There will be video lessons indeed!

Considering making a lesson in @rustforjsdev public so folks can get a taste of it, which one?
