Rust Cookbook by Vigneshwer Dhinakaran

Key FeaturesLearn to build high-performance Rust units and integrate them into your existing applicationWork through recipes on performance, robustness, security, memory management, and scalabilityWork through recipes to build foreign function interface with C, JS, and PythonBook DescriptionIf you are building concurrent applications, server-side programs, or high-performance applications, you will benefit from this language. This book comes with a lot of application-specific recipes to kick-start your development of real-world high-performance applications with the Rust programming language and integrating Rust units into your existing applications. In this book, you will find some 80 practical recipes written in Rust that will allow you to use the code samples right away in your existing applications. These recipes have been tested with stable rust compiler versions of 1.14.0 and above.This book will help you understand the core concepts of the Rust language, enabling you to develop efficient and high-performance applications by incorporating features such as zero cost abstraction and better memory management.Well delve into advanced-level concepts such as error handling, macros, crates, and parallelism in Rust. Toward the end of the book, you will learn how to create HTTP servers and web services, building a strong foundational knowledge in server-side programming and enabling you to deliver solutions to build high-performance and safer production-level web applications and services using Rust.What you will learnUnderstand system programming language problems and see how Rust provides unique solutionsGet to know the core concepts of Rust to develop fast and safe applicationsExplore the possibility of integrating Rust units into existing applications to make them more efficientAchieve better parallelism, security, and performanceExplore ways to package your Rust application and ship it for deployment in a production environmentDiscover how to build web applications and services using Rust to provide high-performance to the end userAbout the AuthorVigneshwer Dhinakaran is an innovative data scientist with an artistic perception of technology and business, having over 3 years of experience in various domains, such as IOT, DevOps, computer vision, and deep learning, and is currently engaged as a research analyst crunching real-time data and implementing state-of-the-art AI algorithms in the innovation and development lab of the worlds largest decision science company in Bengaluru, India.He is an official Mozilla representative and Techspeaker in India and has been associated with Mozilla communities and technologies for more than 5 years.
