Rust for TypeScript Developers
As a TypeScript developer, expand your skills with Rust to gain memory safety without a garbage collector, high performance, and a strong, robust type system. This course opens opportunities in systems programming, WebAssembly, and performance‑critical applications.
What you'll learn
- Understand how Rust compares to TypeScript in syntax, types, and ergonomics
- Learn Rust fundamentals: variables, functions, control flow, structs, enums, and traits
- Work with Rust collections, strings, iterators, and file I/O
- Use Options, Results, and error handling patterns to avoid null/undefined issues
- Master ownership, borrowing, and the borrow checker for safe memory management
- Implement and use traits, custom iterators, and generic abstractions in real examples
Skills you'll gain
- Compare and translate common TypeScript constructs into Rust
- Work effectively with Rust numbers, strings, vectors, tuples, and structs
- Write and use iterators, including custom iterator implementations
- Read from files and process text data using Rust’s iterator patterns
- Use enums, Options, and Results to model state and handle absence and errors safely
- Apply Rust error handling with unwrap, unwrap_or, and and_then
- Understand stack vs heap, ownership, borrowing, and the borrow checker rules
- Define and implement traits, including Default, Display, IntoIterator, and custom traits
- Build generic, trait‑based abstractions for geometry and collision detection
- Refactor and structure Rust code with modules and trait implementations
Prerequisites
- • Proficiency in TypeScript
- • Understanding of unions in TypeScript
- • Understanding of generics
- • Familiarity with functional programming concepts
Who this course is for
- → TypeScript developers wanting to learn Rust
- → Frontend or fullstack developers moving toward backend or systems programming
- → Developers interested in WebAssembly and performance‑critical applications
