Rust Bootcamp
Rust has been voted as the most loved language for 7 years in a row on Stack Overflow's developer survey. You'll learn why in this Rust programming bootcamp.
Overview
Rust is widely used in Web3: it is the primary smart contract language for Solana, NEAR, MultiverseX, Cosmos SDK, Arbitrum Stylus, Polkadot's Substrate, and Zcash's Halo2. Rust is also a vast language which can be overwhelming. This course focuses on the aspects that are used most in blockchain programs and smart contracts.
This bootcamp emphasizes learning the language from a security aspect. During the bootcamp, you will learn to spot bugs in production Rust code.
Signature Human Touch
Not only will you save time in searching for answers to clarify concepts, you’ll be motivated to work harder when you are surrounded by energetic peers who are pushing themselves to learn fast.
But the best part of our Rust bootcamp is our signature small class sizes and weekly one-on-one meeting with your instructor.
Prerequisites
General proficiency with programming is expected. Some familiarity with smart contracts is ideal as the course will use those as examples.
