Rust is a modern systems programming language created by Mozilla and OpenSource Commnunity. Rust focusses on three aspects: safety, speed, and concurrency. It does it without having a garbage collector. This makes it embeddable in other programming languages which is helps to write high performance low-level code.
Some projects built with Rust are Servo(Mozilla’s parallel browser engine), Redox OS and more
I've been trying to play rust on my mac for a couple weeks and the same problems keep turning up and make it unplayable. At first, everything is ok. I'm getting plenty of frames, the textures are good, and it's all peachy.
Rust won the first place for Most Loved Programming Language of 2016 in the Stack Overflow Developer Survey.
Open your terminal and run
Once rust setup process completed, Add below command to to your bash profile(~/.bash_profile
)
relauch your terminal and run this below command. This command will print your rust compiler version on your terminal. If you get rust compiler version displayed, then you are good to go.
rustc is the Rust compiler which compiles the code into executable binary.
run it with

On Windows, Rust additionally requires the C++ build tools for Visual Studio 2013 or later. The easiest way to acquire the build tools is by installing Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools 2019 which provides just the Visual C++ build tools. Alternately, you can install Visual Studio 2019, Visual Studio 2017, Visual Studio 2015, or Visual Studio 2013 and during install select the “C++ tools.”
For further information about configuring Rust on Windows see the Windows-specific rustup
documentation.
rustup
Rust is installed and managed by the rustup
tool. Rust has a 6-week rapid release process and supports a great number of platforms, so there are many builds of Rust available at any time. rustup
manages these builds in a consistent way on every platform that Rust supports, enabling installation of Rust from the beta and nightly release channels as well as support for additional cross-compilation targets.
If you've installed rustup
in the past, you can update your installation by running rustup update
.
For more information see the rustup
documentation.
PATH
environmentvariable In the Rust development environment, all tools are installed to the ~/.cargo/bin
%USERPROFILE%.cargobin
directory, and this is where you will find the Rust toolchain, including rustc
, cargo
, and rustup
.
Accordingly, it is customary for Rust developers to include this directory in their PATH
environment variable. During installation rustup
will attempt to configure the PATH
. Because of differences between platforms, command shells, and bugs in rustup
, the modifications to PATH
may not take effect until the console is restarted, or the user is logged out, or it may not succeed at all.
If, after installation, running rustc --version
in the console fails, this is the most likely reason.
If at any point you would like to uninstall Rust, you can run rustup self uninstall
. We'll miss you though!
