Rust is a systems programming language focused on performance, memory safety and concurrency without a garbage collector. It provides zero-cost abstractions, a strong static type system and ownership-based memory management to prevent common errors. Its ecosystem includes Cargo, crates.io package registry and comprehensive tooling for testing, formatting and…

Rust is a compiled language that targets memory safety and concurrency without a garbage collector.
Graydon Hoare began Rust in 2006; Mozilla supported its development and released it as open source in 2010. Rust combines systems-level control with an ownership and type system that catches many memory errors at compile time.
The compiler checks ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes before execution. Safe Rust can therefore rule out data races and use-after-free. The trade-off is learning and explicit modelling; unsafe code and external systems remain trust boundaries.
Each value has an owner; rules control transfer and lifetime.
References provide controlled access without ambiguous lifetimes.
The tool manages builds, dependencies, and tests.
Rust fits performant services, tools, and embedded systems. Compiler strictness improves safety but does not replace tests, dependency hygiene, or careful unsafe boundaries.
