Introduction to Rust Programming Training
This five day course is designed to equip a programmer with the necessary tools, knowledge and skills to develop client, server or embedded software solutions using the Rust programming language. This course covers the Rust language, explores std (standard) library as well as best practices.Perhaps, more importantly, this course prepares the participant to not just learn the mechanics behind Rust programming, but help develop the mentality and understand the design principles behind this mighty language.
