Building on two successful editions (135,000+ copies sold), this book adds essential updates to a title considered the Rust programming language’s official documentation. Rust provides control of low-level details along with high-level ergonomics, allowing you to improve productivity and eliminate the hassle traditionally associated with low-level languages. From web apps to operating systems, Rust is a safe, fast, reliable language used for a wide variety of applications.

Klappentext

Build stable, production-grade systems with Rust.

The Rust Programming Language, 3rd Edition, teaches you to write code that the compiler can verify, teams can maintain, and systems can evolve safely over time. Written by longtime Rust community members, this book shows you how to work effectively with Rust’s type system, concurrency model, and tooling, using patterns and idioms chosen for long-term stability.

Learn how to:

Design programs that communicate their invariants to the compiler
Use ownership, lifetimes, and traits to model real-world constraints
Write concurrent and multithreaded code with confidence and clarity
Build, test, document, and refactor projects using Cargo effectively
Handle errors explicitly and idiomatically
Apply expressive pattern matching to simplify complex logic
Three substantial project chapters—focusing on a number-guessing game, a command-line tool, and a multithreaded server—demonstrate how these concepts work together in complete, real programs.

Whether you’re new to Rust or already using it in production, this book helps you write code that scales safely and makes its guarantees explicit.

New to this edition:

Complete async programming chapter
Miri for analyzing unsafe code
Built on the Rust 2024 Edition
Modern Rust idioms, tooling, and practices
