- trait-based generics
- pattern matching
- type inference
- minimal runtime
- efficient C bindings
After attending this course you will:
- be able to create, compile, and run your own simple Rust project
- be familiar with the long list of Rust features
- understand some of Rust's strength's and weaknesses
- be aware of the current state of the Rust community

It felt a bit like I was watching a recorded training session or it was being read, but the content was great. I looked at Rust a little bit a few months back but after this talk, I really want to dig into it. It looks really nice. I like how Nathan explained the various rules and ownership which govern how everything in Rust works. I wish I could have seen the follow-up talk.
Can you provide your slides?
Wow! What a well-polished presentation! I felt like I was drinking from a fire-hose, and loving every minute of it!
Thank you for the feedback, everyone! I really appreciate the it!
I added a link to the slides at the top of this page. Be forewarned: there are nearly 600 slides!
Does anyone know if OpenWest will provide some way to obtain the videos of the presentation?
Brilliant presentation! Slides, content and humor!
I cant find a link to the talk, could you please help me with that.

As far as I am aware, OpenWest has not provided any way to access any recorded videos of any of my talks. If anyone has more information, I would love to get access to my own recordings.
