This book is aimed at those who have a little experience with Rust (or even a lot), and would now like to learn how to build good software with it. What is "good" software anyway? What would it look like in Rust? And how do we get there from here?
"Rust is now being used increasingly in critical software, and what I mean by that is high stakes: life and livelihood on the line. It could be life-saving medical equipment, it could be lynchpin financial services, urgent countermeasures in war zones, low-margin control systems like nuclear reactors, space shuttles, or even cars. This is where we want Rust to be, because we think Rust has unique properties that make it the right tool for doing this successfully." - Jon Gjengset
If you want to learn why Rust consistently tops polls of the most admired languages, and why its popularity is rising fast among those who want to build safe, reliable, and high-performance software, this is the book for you. You'll master a guided-by-tests workflow for designing user-friendly APIs and building libraries of trusted, stable, high-quality software components suitable for critical applications.
