Rust

The Rust programming language is Stackoverflow’s most beloved programming language for the past 4 years. As it's adoption reaches beyond alpha developers writing system software, there is a strong demand for using Rust to write web services and applications.

Originally created by Mozilla, Google, Microsoft, and Apple as the next generation code execution engine web browsers, WebAssembly is the ideal execution engine for running Rust applications on the server side. 

Welcome everyone who is interested in the Servo project to join!

In this talk, I will talk about

• What Servo project is?
• How to contribute to Servo?
• How to test what you implemented?
• How to find tasks to do?

I will introduce to Rust, including the principles, the traits, and the current state of the Rust community. After that, I am going to talk about how to build a minimal DBMS from scratch - the StellarSQL project. In this talk, the following is covered. What is a DBMS? What is the architecture of the DBMS? What is the progress in developing the project? What are the existed resources in the community that I use for the developing? The speech would manifest that developing a small DBMS is fascinating and Rust is cool and powerful.

Let's explore the Bitcoin protocol by building a Bitcoin client from scratch, one that connects with other Bitcoin nodes and accesses data stored on the chain of blocks. I will introduce relevant concepts (such as tx, utxo, block, address, op-code) as we implement the components. To add to the fun, we'll trying doing this in a safe systems language, Rust.
