Linux

Up until now, the go-to language for low level, performance oriented code was C, or C++. Last year, Mozilla publicly released Rust, a language designed for safe memory manipulation, providing high level tools for low level development. It has since proven a good language to build the basic bricks of a system, and replace some C plugins for various language with safe and readable code. I will present in this talk various techniques I use to rewrite parts of a project in Rust, and the benefits you can get from applying it to your own projects.
