Learning from a real project is fun and inspiring -- it’s the best way to see how Rust's power and safety come together in practice. In this session, we might:
- Look at how GORBIE works - a minimalist notebook library for Rust.
- Look at
phf,phf-codegenits usage atcif-chomper. - vibe code together on an open-source project from scratch: vizmat
Rust is a language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
Let's meet for open hacking and (co)-learning in our bi-weekly learning group!
Everyone is welcome. Rusties of all skill levels meet and hack on cool Rust stuff.
- Never written a single line of Rust, but interested in the language? There will be people around to get you set up and going.
- Already have a project? Just hack on it or find others interested in contributing. If you have something working, you can put it on the big screen and show everyone.
- Don't have a project yet? There are lots of ideas and cool projects floating around that you can work on!
Here are some ideas if you don't know what to hack on:
- Install Rust https://www.rust-lang.org/downloads.html .
- Read the Rust book https://doc.rust-lang.org/
- Complete Rustlings (a great beginners course!) https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings
Bring your ideas, questions & projects and let's meet.
- What did you work on this week?
- What problems did you solve this week with Rust?
- Are you just learning Rust and want some topic explained?
- Found an interesting crate you want to talk about?
Feel free to join and drop out at any point. Everyone is invited to join us, no travel necessary.
