Details

Our "Rust by Example" Educational Series continues! We only covered the primitive types last session, so this session we'll focus on how to make our own custom types.

This hands-on session covers Chapter 3: "Custom Types" from Rust by Example. We'll explore 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 two sessions (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! 🦀
