Tim McNamara
"Rust for the rest of the world"
In this talk, Tim delves into how the Rust community can expand its inclusivity beyond Western norms by rethinking language barriers and cultural dynamics, encouraging attendees to create more diverse and welcoming environments within their projects.
Tomas Tauber
"Elevating Parsing in Rust : A Peek into pest3"
pest is a popular general purpose parser written in Rust with a focus on accessibility, correctness, and performance. It uses parsing expression grammars (or PEG) as input, which are similar in spirit to regular expressions, but which offer the enhanced expressivity needed to parse complex languages. This talk will gently introduce the current version of pest, describe some of its common shortcomings, and outline how they are addressed in its next version (dubbed as โpest3โ) which has a working prototype in development. In particular, the talk will highlight the new trivia handling sequence operators and typed tree API.
Florian Gilcher
"Ferrocene - The Present and Future of Rust in Safety"
Rust is a relatively new language - released in 2015, it has taken the software programming world surprisingly and swiftly. It is surprising that - not 10 years later - we have ongoing projects and initiatives in the Functional Safety/SDV space. Rust is even seen as a front runner of open source safety initiatives. How did that happen? This talk provides an overview of currently ongoing initiatives, an assessment of challenges and an outlook into the future.
Adam Chalmers
"Building CAD with Rust"
At Zoo they're building a cloud-powered CAD suite, so that users can always use the newest, fastest GPUs and CPUs, without buying a heavy expensive laptop that constantly blows burning-hot air into your face as it struggles to render your models. Zoo uses Rust for API servers, large amounts of frontend (via WebAssembly), our CLI tools and our programming language tooling (parsers, compilers, runtimes, even the documentation generator). They built a visual testing framework to ensure the same KittyCAD code always generates the same visuals. Rust has been our superpower building this company and reusing code across backend, frontend and CLI. In this talk, Adam will show you how they've used Rust to build these systems and what they learned along the way.
