Rust
A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
Rust is an open-source systems programming language focused on performance, memory safety, and concurrency without a garbage collector. It uses a unique ownership model to eliminate entire classes of bugs at compile time. Rust is used across domains including CLI tools, WebAssembly, networking, and embedded systems.
Rust's ownership and type system enforces memory and thread safety at compile time, eliminating runtime overhead from garbage collection.
