Why Rust?
Rust gives C-like speed with memory safety and no garbage collector.
📖 Key ideas
- Rust is a systems language focused on safety, speed and concurrency.
- The compiler prevents many memory bugs at compile time.
- Install with rustup; cargo is the build tool and package manager.
- cargo new hello; cargo run.
- Used in browsers, OS kernels, CLIs, WebAssembly and blockchain.
💡 Real-life example: Rust is a strict driving instructor: hard at first, but you rarely crash afterwards.
