This is my report of my talk at the TupperRust meetup hold in Lyon (France, February 2017) You find my slides available to download.

The February 2nd 2017, I have presented a talk entitled Hello, Rust! — An overview about the Rust language. This language describes itself as safe, concurrent, and practical. The goal of this presentation was to give an overview of several features brought by the language, such as its strong safety guarantees, or speed and memory performances.

The slides are available online

First slide from the Hello, Rust! talk

This talk has been presented during the first TupperRust meetup event in Lyon (France) . This is a serie of meetups focusing on Rust. The interaction was exceptional: The audience has been a great actor of this talk, and we even had a live-coding session on projects made by someones in the room. It was a great moment to talk about concrete problem, memory safety, performance etc.

It was also an opportunity to present a project that I have started here at Liip, called Tagua VM, which is an experimental PHP Virtual Machine that guarantees safety and quality by removing large classes of vulnerabilities thanks to the Rust language and the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure.

If you have any question, feel free to ask anything!
