Rust

Rust from the borrow checker outward: ownership and the cost model that replaces a garbage collector, errors a caller can act on, iterators, traits and dispatch, lifetimes, async and Send/Sync, Cargo as a build system, the FFI boundary, serde, edition 2024, and where the language stands today.
