Fundamentals for using structs in Rust
Blog post from LogRocket
Rust, a programming language developed by Mozilla, offers a modern syntax and a central package manager, similar to C, but without classes. Instead, Rust utilizes structs to define groups of properties, and employs traits to enable functions, allowing developers to implement object-oriented design without inheritance. The tutorial explains how to define and utilize structs and traits in Rust, using examples such as creating a `Cat` struct and implementing a `Pet` trait to add methods like `birthday` and `sound`. The derive attribute simplifies implementing traits, and the Box type is used to return various structs implementing the same trait. Additionally, LogRocket can be used to monitor and debug Rust applications by tracking performance and user interactions, offering insights into errors and slow network requests.
