Master Rust, The Modern Systems Language Built for Safety, Speed, and ControlWhether you're an experienced C++ developer or new to systems programming, this book provides a thorough and practical introduction to Rust. It is a language that transforms the way we write safe, high-performance software. You will discover how Rust's ownership model guarantees memory safety without garbage collection, how borrowing and lifetimes eliminate data races at compile time, and how zero-cost abstractions enable expressive code with no performance trade-off. The book covers everything from core syntax to advanced topics like unsafe code and concurrency, guiding you through Rust's full capabilities. Throughout, you will see how familiar C++ concepts such as RAII, smart pointers, and deterministic destructors are adapted and enforced through Rust's type system and tooling. With exercises, in-depth explanations, and practical examples, this book not only teaches you Rust but also helps you learn how to think in Rust.
Inside you'll find: - A complete walkthrough of Rust's core principles and features
- In-depth coverage of memory safety, lifetimes, and ownership
- Practical examples of safe concurrency and error handling
- Exercise and small project examples
- Final chapters on Concurrency, lifetimes and, unsafe Rust
Write safer code. Ship faster. Think differently. Rust is not just a tool-it's a new foundation.
