Game Development with Rust and WebAssembly by
The Rust programming language has held the most loved technology ranking on Stack Overflow for 5 years running, while JavaScript has been the most used programming language for 8 years straight as it runs on every web browser. Now, thanks to WebAssembly (or Wasm), you can use the language you love, on the platform thats everywhere. In fact, you can use Rust to build games! This book is an easy-to-follow reference to help you make your own games, teaching you all about game development by creating an endless runner from scratch. Youll begin by drawing simple graphics in the browser window, and then learn how to move the main character across the screen. Youll also create a game loop, a renderer, and more, all written entirely in Rust.
Speed up Your Python with Rust by
Discover how to inject your code with highly performant Rust features to develop fast and memory-safe applicationsKey Features* Learn to implement Rust in a Python system without altering the entire system* Write safe and efficient Rust code as a Python developer by understanding the essential features of Rust* Build Python extensions in Rust by using Python NumPy modules in your Rust codeBook DescriptionPython has made software development easier, but it falls short in several areas including memory management that lead to poor performance and security. Rust, on the other hand, provides memory safety without using a garbage collector, which means that with its low memory footprint, you can build high-performant and secure apps relatively easily. However, rewriting everything in Rust can be expensive and risky as there might not be package support in Rust for the problem being solved. This is where Python bindings and pip come in.This book will help you, as a Python developer, to start using Rust in your Python projects without having to manage a separate Rust server or application. Seeing as you'll already understand concepts like functions and loops, this book covers the quirks of Rust such as memory management to code Rust in a productive and structured manner. You'll explore the PyO3 crate to fuse Rust code with Python, learn how to package your fused Rust code in a pip package, and then deploy a Python Flask application in Docker that uses a private Rust pip module. Finally, you'll get to grips with advanced Rust binding topics such as inspecting Python objects and modules in Rust.By the end of this Rust book, you'll be able to develop safe and high-performant applications with better concurrency support.What you will learn* Explore the quirks of the Rust programming language that a Python developer needs to understand to code in Rust* Understand the trade-offs for multiprocessing and thread safety to write concurrent code* Build and manage a software project with cargo and crates* Fuse Rust code with Python so that Python can import and run Rust code* Deploy a Python Flask application in Docker that utilizes a private Rust pip module* Inspect and create your own Python objects in RustWho this book is forThis book is for Python developers who want to speed up their Python code with Rust and implement Rust in a Python system without altering the entire system. You'll be able to learn about all topics relating to Rust programming. Basic knowledge of Python is required to get the most out of this book.

Mastering Rust Programming: From Foundations to Future by
"Mastering Rust Programming: From Foundations to Future" is a comprehensive guide that caters to both beginners and experienced programmers looking to deepen their understanding of Rust, a language renowned for its safety, speed, and concurrency. This book meticulously explores the Rust programming language, from its fundamental principles to its most advanced features, providing a solid foundation for anyone aspiring to become proficient in modern systems programming. The journey begins with an introduction to Rust's syntax and basic concepts, making it accessible even for those new to the language. Readers will learn about ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes, which are central to Rust's memory safety guarantees. The book then smoothly transitions into more complex topics, including error handling, effective use of Rust's type system, and functional programming features. What sets this book apart is its focus on real-world application. It dives into building reliable and efficient software, with chapters dedicated to performance optimization, concurrency, and asynchronous programming. These sections are particularly invaluable, as they address common challenges faced in systems-level development and offer Rust-specific solutions. "Mastering Rust Programming" also dedicates substantial coverage to advanced features like macros, domain-specific languages, and FFI (Foreign Function Interface). These topics are crucial for developers looking to leverage Rust's full potential, especially when integrating with other languages or working on cross-platform projects. The latter part of the book is forward-looking, discussing the future trajectory of Rust programming. It provides insights into the evolving ecosystem, emerging patterns, and practices in the Rust community. This future-focused perspective prepares readers not just to work with Rust as it is today, but to adapt and grow with the language over time. Throughout the book, practical examples, real-world case studies, and hands-on projects solidify the reader's understanding and provide ample opportunities to apply the concepts learned. This makes it an ideal resource for self-study, academic coursework, or professional reference. Whether you're looking to start your journey in Rust programming or aiming to master its intricacies, "Mastering Rust Programming: From Foundations to Future" is an essential companion, providing a thorough and nuanced understanding of one of the most important programming languages in modern software development.
