What is Rust and Why is it So Popular?
TL;DR The Rust compiler is built on top of LLVM. Rust is a statically-typed language. Rust has optional types for handling null and the compiler requires the None case to be handled. Rust requires top-level items like function arguments and constants to have explicit types while allowing type inference inside of function bodies. Rust’s strong type system and memory safety are all enforced at compile time! Rust does not need to have a garbage collector!...
