Installing Rust is quite easy. Head to the official website https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install and follow the steps.
From your CLI, confirm your installation with rustc –-version
and cargo –-version
The former is the standard Rust tool for compiling and executing your code.
The latter is an abstraction that provides common tools needed by developers to organize their code and other external libraries.
You also get a linter: clippy
, and a nice way to run tests for your code.
