Join the Online Town

Join the chat on Matrix

We’re switching things up again! This week we’re meeting in The Online Town.

Online Town is a video-calling experience that lets multiple people hold separate conversations in parallel and lets you walk in, out and around those conversations just as easily as you would in real life. It’s also fun.

Feel free to join and drop out at any point. Everyone is invited to join us, no travel necessary.

Online meetup instructions

At 19:00 join our little Online Town. It works from the browser and uses your webcam and microphone over WebRTC.

Rust is a language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

Let’s meet for open hacking and (co)-learning in our bi-weekly learning group!

Everyone is welcome. Rusties of all skill levels meet and hack on cool Rust stuff. Please bring a computer.

Never written a single line of Rust, but interested in the language? There will be people around to get you set up and going.

Already have a project? Just hack on it or find others interested in contributing. If you have something working, you can put it on the big screen and show everyone.

Don’t have a project yet? There are lots of ideas and cool projects floating around that you can work on!

Here are some ideas if you don’t know what to hack on:

• Install Rust https://www.rust-lang.org/downloads.html .
• Read the Rust book https://doc.rust-lang.org/
• Complete Rustlings (a great beginners course!) https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings
