What is Rust Programming

الصدأ هي لغة برمجة نظم برعاية البحوث موزيلا.

Rust is a systems programming language sponsored by Mozilla Research, which describes it as a "safe, concurrent, practical language", supporting functional and imperative-procedural paradigms. Rust is syntactically similar to C++, but its designers intend it to provide better memory safety whilst maintaining performance.

Rust is an open source programming language. Its designers have refined the language through the experiences of writing the Servo web browser layout engine and the Rust compiler. A large portion of current commits to the project are from community members.

Rust won first place for "most loved programming language" in the Stack Overflow Developer Survey in 2016 and 2017, it is referenced in The Book of Mozilla as "oxidised metal".

Rust is an open source systems programming language that focuses on speed, memory safety and parallelism. Mozilla sponsors the work of the Rust community.

A systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents segfaults, and guarantees thread safety.
