We are delighted to announce the next edition of Rust and Tell Berlin! We are greatful that GitButler is hosting us this time!

Line-Up

Code in Rust with RustRover by Vitaly Bragilevsky

RustRover is a Rust IDE recently launched by JetBrains. RustRover implements out-of-the-box experience and provides a lot of functionality for Rust developers. In this talk, I’ll overview the most useful as well as lesser-known RustRover features and show how to use them effectively to get your job done. Among other things, I’ll dive into the RustRover debugger and prove that it’s time to abandon the general practice to print things out while debugging your code!

Meilisearch: Rust based search engine by Prasun Joshi

In this talk, we’ll dissect Meilisearch - a search engine - to understand how to build performant systems using Rust. We’ll also see it in action by implementing a custom search engine.

The Oro Kernel Boot Protocol - a Tango with Undefined Behavior by Josh Junon

Telling an OS’s kernel about the system on which it’s running can be messy, especially when you want to decouple the kernel and the bootloader stage. He’ll talk about how he wrote “ser2mem” using procedural macros, how the kernel can “deserialize” this information using a single pointer cast, and how he pushed the boundaries of what’s considered undefined behavior in Rust.
