Refactoring to Rust

Don’t rewrite from scratch! Improve your software speed and scalability by iteratively replacing performance-critical code with Rust

Refactoring to Rust helps you get the speed and reliability of Rust libraries, functions, and high-performance features without needing a complete rewrite of your codebase.

In Refactoring to Rust you will learn to:

• Create Rust libraries you can call from other programming languages
• Integrate Rust functions with code in other languages
• Use Rust’s ownership and borrowing system to write high performance code
• Handle errors as values using Rust’s enums
• Minimize unnecessary memory usage with Rust’s multiple string types
• Boost performance with Rust concurrency and async event processing
• Create Rust HTTP services

Rust is designed to gradually replace other languages by integrating and decomposing existing code. Refactoring to Rust helps you take full advantage of this amazing feature, even if you’ve never coded in Rust before. You’ll learn practical code-mixing techniques like embedding Rust libraries into apps written in other languages.
