Lunch & Learn: Reasoning with Async Rust

Join us for our next Lunch & Learn: Reasoning with Async Rust.

Talk description:
Reasoning through concurrent systems has always been a challenging task. Poor code can be riddled with race conditions, non-terminating cases and other complex concurrency bugs; and even well-written code can be hard to understand. Async programming is an innovative concurrent programming model that rises to this challenge. In this talk, we'll explore reasoning with async Rust. We'll be introduced to its fundamental building blocks, such as `async`, `await` and `join`, and learn how to predict the behavior of code written with them.

Speaker:
Zainab Ali is a functional polyglot and educator. As well as all things functional, she's interested in the art of reasoning through concurrent systems.

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 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.
