Rust by Example - Primitives and Custom Types


Details
Our "Rust by Example" Educational Series continues! After successfully covering "Hello World" in our first session, we're diving deeper into Rust's type system.
This hands-on session covers Chapters 2 & 3: "Primitives" and "Custom Types" from Rust by Example. We'll explore Rust's built-in data types, then learn how to create your own structs, enums, and type aliases - fundamental building blocks for any Rust program.
⚠️ New to the series? Arrive early (5:45pm) for setup help and a quick recap of previous content.
⏰ Schedule:
- 18:00-18:30: Networking with refreshments (join other tech communities)
- 18:30-20:00: Rust by Example - Primitives & Custom Types chapters
🎯 Who should attend:
- Those who attended our first session (perfect continuation!)
- Developers with basic Rust setup who want to join the series
- Anyone curious about Rust's powerful type system
- Programmers from other languages wanting to see what makes Rust special
📋 What to bring:
- Your laptop with Rust installed (we can help if needed)
- Questions from your own coding experiments
- Experience with types from other languages (we love comparisons!)
Building on our solid foundation - let's explore what makes Rust's type system so expressive and safe!
Looking forward to seeing returning Rustaceans and welcoming new faces! 🦀
