A quick summary of what we can do with Cargo.

We can create a project using cargo new.
We can build a project using cargo build.
We can build and run a project in one step using cargo run.
We can build a project without producing a binary to check for errors using cargo check.
Instead of saving the result of the build in the same directory as our code, Cargo stores it in the target/debug directory.

Beginning rust programming

I am going to learn some rudimentary rust, so that I can hopefully write some simple programs.

I have installed the rust programming language compiler, according to the man page, to compile a program source to an executable on a GNU/Linux system I need.

rustc -o hello hello.rs

However, for really simple programs

rustc hello.rs

works fine.

Which is very similar to how you would compile in c.

So following the age-old tradition of creating a program to display hello world.

:~/Development/rust/helloworld$ ls
hello.rs
:~/Development/rust/helloworld$ rustc hello.rs
:~/Development/rust/helloworld$ ls
hello  hello.rs
:~/Development/rust/helloworld$ ./hello 
Hello, world!
:~/Development/rust/helloworld$ 

The manual then jumps in to using cargo, as this is better for managing larger projects, so this also needs to be installed

sudo apt install cargo

We can also check what versions we are running

rustc --version
rustc 1.75.0 (82e1608df 2023-12-21) (built from a source tarball)
cargo --version
cargo 1.75.0
$

Linux Screen reader

I found this earlier this week, looks like a really great project, so another great find from the Fediverse.

Rust on RISC-V BL602: Simulated with WebAssembly

Another useful resource found. The subject matter is a little too compex for me but it may be of interest to others. It will appear back on Mastodon too.
