LEARN RUST WITH ME

• This repo contains all my exercise files for my rust basics so feel free to join me on my rust learning journey.

Rust installation.

• I used this video as a guide to install Rust on windows. You can follow the documentation as well.
• To start a new rust project run. cargo new <project-name> rustup - version manager rustc - compiler ( rustc filename.rs compiles to filename.exe then run ./filname in the terminal). rustup - packakage manager

Extensions to install

• rust (rls) by rust-lang for linting
• better TOML by bung... for toml syntax highlighting.

Folder structure

• Cargo.toml - is pretty much like package.json for node.
• src is where you write all your rust code.

Important commands

• To compile and run the cargo project use. cargo run

• To build the project. cargo build

• If your building for production. add the --release flag.

• To go through documentation. cargo doc --open

• To update crates cargo update

• Oh btw rust files cant start with a number as a name so 1print.rs wont work.
