Hack & Learn Tokio Edition

Join us for another round of hacking and learning Rust! Pair up and solve some Katas, work on your latest Rust project or join the "newbie corner".

This time though, we will provide an introduction to Tokio (Token-based asynchronous IO) by taking tokio-cassandra as an example. Those who are inclined can try to hack on it as well.

Everyone is welcome, from seasoned programmer to those still seeking an opportunity to write their first line of Rust. In the latter case, don't worry, we will help you getting set up and going.

Thought Works Deutschland will kindly host us on their new floor at their Hamburg office, Großer Burstah 46-48. Drinks will be available, as well as snacks.

We will start at 6:30 pm with a short introduction and then start hacking until 9 pm. From 9 to 9:30 there will be time to present your results (if you like) and share your "lessons learned".

Requirements

Please bring a laptop, ideally with your favourite editor and a recent Rust stable already installed. If you can't bring one, you can certainly pair up with someone who brought theirs.
