About the technology

Developers love Rust! Rust is a true general purpose language, suitable for everything from system programming to web applications and games. It delivers the performance of low-level languages like C/C++ while providing memory safety, type safety, and a compiler that makes it difficult to compile bad code. Plus, Rust makes it easy to refactor your code without worrying about breaking anything. It's a truly hassle-free programming experience.
