Ă€ propos de nous
Welcome to Women in Rust! We're building a vibrant community where women can come together to learn about, and build our skills in Rust.
🦀 Rust is on a trajectory to revolutionise software development with its unique combination of memory safety, performance, and productivity gains, so whether you're a seasoned Rustacean or just starting your journey, we look forward to you joining us!
👥 Our meetup group is all about fostering a supportive and inclusive environment where women can connect, collaborate, and grow their skills in Rust. Whether you're interested in web development, systems programming, or diving into the world of embedded devices, there's something here for everyone.
đź’« Our in-person meetups are hosted in the heart of London, just above Oxford Circus. They're hybrid, so if you're based internationally, or aren't able to make it into London you'll be able to join through our online link.
đź’» We'll be hosting regular online Lunch & Learn sessions, where are guest speakers will provide insightful webinars, sharing their own experiences and valuable lessons learned on their journey into Rust programming.

Is Women in Rust only for women?
We set up Women in Rust to foster a more inclusive and diverse Rust community by providing a dedicated space for women to connect, learn, and grow. Our online and in-person events are designed to support this mission. However, we also want to contribute to the wider Rust community, which is why all of our talks will be available to watch on YouTube Youtube after the event. We also welcome you to use our Notion Resources page, where you can find useful articles, reading materials and advice to help you on your journey in learning Rust.

Lunch & Learn: From Protobuf to Production - A Guide to gRPC in Rust
·En ligneEn lignegRPC is an open-source framework developed by Google, which enables strongly typed and fast communication between services and clients as an alternative to traditional RESTful APIs. This is especially powerful when combined with Rust, which also prioritises safety and speed.
This talk draws from experience working with a real-world production codebase that defines multiple gRPC services within a single Rust binary. The aim is to provide an overview of gRPC in Rust by walking through the process of building a gRPC service, explaining the advantages/disadvantages of gRPC, and tracing the journey of how a single request flows through the entire system and back.
️ When: April 22, 13:00

Lunch & Learn: Seeing Into Your Code - A Practical Guide to Tracing in Rust
·En ligneEn ligneJoin us for our next Lunch & Learn: Seeing Into Your Code - A Practical Guide to Tracing in Rust
You've shipped your Rust app, but can you see what it's doing? When something goes wrong at 2am, `println!` isn't going to save you.
In this talk, we'll explore Rust's `tracing` ecosystem and build a practical understanding of how to add observability to your applications.
Starting from the basics (structured logging with `tracing::info!`, `warn!`, and `error!`) we'll work through real examples showing how to go from scattered print statements to structured, queryable, filterable logs that actually help you debug.
We'll cover the difference between events and spans, see how `#[instrument]` can automatically capture function context, and look at how to get your traces into tools like Grafana. Along the way, we'll build a small web app and watch the traces flow in real time.
What you'll learn
- Why structured tracing beats `println!` debugging
- Practical everyday usage: `tracing::info!`, `warn!`, `error!` with structured fields
- How `#[instrument]` gives you automatic context
- Getting traces into Grafana with Loki
- Patterns for making your logs useful, filterable, and production-ready
Who it's for: Rust developers at any level who want to understand what their code is actually doing in production.
