lots of words about rust
I finally finished my research blog post series about Rust. Half of the content is introducing Rust's syntax and language features and the awesome things you can do with it; half of it is a debrief of what I contributed with my two projects. Some pictures, and lots and lots of code snippets.
Give it a look if you like systems programming, functional programming, parallel programming...
Post 0: index + conclusion
Post 1: intro to syntax and the memory/concurrency model
Post 2: linked task failure (my first project)
Post 3: typesafe shared state (and a bit about the region system)
Post 4: typesafe shared mutable state (my second project)
There ended up being a lot more to say than originally planned - post 4 ended up having to be separate from post 3, and then I decided I'd written so much that I needed some structural text, so threw together post 0 as well.
