A Lightspeed Introduction to Rust
Rust is a programming language.
As of this writing it's at version 1.40, only ~9 years old!
Compare that to
- JavaScript, 1995 ~24 years old
- Haskell, 1990 ~30 years old
Mozilla was the first investor in Rust, being heavily involved in the development of the language. Coincedentally Mozilla was also heavily involved in the development of JavaScript (not just) through its beginnings as an arm of the Netscape Communications Corporation.
People who write Rust are endearingly called "Rustaceans".
