Appendix

Preface

Rust has steadily become one of the most important new programming languages in recent years. Like C or C++, Rust enables the developer to write code that is low-level enough to make Rust code quickly. And since Rust is memory-safe by design, it does not allow code that can crash on a null pointer exception. These properties make it a natural choice for writing low-level networking applications. This book will enable developers to get started with writing networking applications with Rust.
