  1. Introduction to Rust own your garbage, so others don't have

    to collect it for you Colóquios Ciência da Computação 14/07/2021
  2. Por que você deveria aprender Rust? • Não existe um

    grande mercado 😭 • Comunidade legal • Muito material disponível • Oportunidade de trabalhar com memory management, borrow checker, lifetimes, tipos expressivos • Aprender boas práticas de desenvolvimento com mensagens de erro • Not Haskell, but functional Programming and types • Not List, but Macros
  3. Why Rust? • Desempenho like C/C++ • System Programming Language

    • Guaranteed memory safe, no memory leak • Threads without data races • No runtime, no Garbage Collection • No undefined behaviour • Zero-cost abstractions • Ergonômica, developer happyness • Expressive data structures • Pattern matching • Type inference
  4. Are we * yet? • Firefox (Servo) • Linux •

    Railcae (container engine Oracle) • Embedded devices: ARM, Intel, Microsoft Azure IoT Edge • Web: OpenDNS, Discord, Facebook ... • Tor • WebAssembly wasm web standard • Command-line apps • Network services
  5. Comparada ao C, Rust é • Menos verbosa • Não

    é baseada em gambiarra • Fácil de escrever testes automatizados • Fácil de gerir dependências • Fácil de gerir projetos • De modo geral, Integração Contínua é muito mais fácil
  6. Tools • rustup: the rust toolchain installer • rustc: the

    rust compiler • cargo: the package and project manager • rustdoc: the documentation builder
  7. $ cargo run Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in

    0.0 secs Running `target/debug/hello_cargo` Hello, world!
  8. Release flow • RFCs: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs • Nightly: include unstable features

    • Beta: upcoming stable releases • Stable: new features with docs every 6 weeks
  9. Ecossistema • crates.io: registry for libs and applications • docs.rs:

    documentation for published libs • https://users.rust-lang.org • https://discordapp.com/invite/rust-lang • https://www.rust-lang.org/community
  10. Statements and Expressions • Rust is an expression-based language, this

    is an important distinction to understand • Statements are instructions that perform some action and do not return a value ◦ Creating a variable and assigning a value to it with the let keyword ◦ Function definitions ◦ C and Ruby assignment returns the value of the assignment • Expressions evaluate to a resulting value ◦ the 6 in the statement let y = 6 ◦ Calling a function ◦ Calling a macro ◦ The block that we use to create new scopes, {} • Function bodies are made up of a series of statements optionally ending in an expression
  11. Ownership is Rust’s most unique feature, and it enables Rust

    to make memory safety guarantees without needing a garbage collector
  12. Ownership • Heap: Memory set aside for dynamic allocation •

    Stack: Memory set aside for a thread • Ownership rules: ◦ Each value in Rust has a variable that's called its owner ◦ There can only be one owner at a time ◦ When the owner goes out of scope, the value will be dropped
  13. Mutable References Pode mudar se indicarmos que a referência é

    mutável. Mas só podemos ter uma referência mutável!
  14. Ficou de fora • Slices • Associated Functions • Enums

    • Modules • Errors with unwrap and expect and ? • Lifetime (não entendi ainda) • Smart Pointers • Object Oriented Programming Features • Concorrência
