Learn how Rust models lifetimes for stack and heap, and how the compiler enforces constraints across function calls. Walk through ‘static vs dynamic lifetimes, lifetime parameters and elision rules, fixing the classic max example, a strtok exercise, and annotating structs—plus when to annotate vs rely on inference.
Master Rust’s shared ownership and runtime checks. Use Rc/Arc for multiple owners, RefCell for interior mutability, and Mutex/RwLock for thread-safe state. Includes a DAG example and a clear look at Box::leak, plus when to prefer static checks vs dynamic checks.
Hands-on guide to Rust borrowing. See how pass-by-value differs from explicit references, when to use read-only vs mutable borrows, and why borrows can’t outlive owners. Includes address demos, lifetimes, and practical fixes for borrow checker errors.
Demystify Rust’s ownership and lifetimes with a step-by-step, stack-first model. See how variables move and borrow across function calls, why the borrow checker complains, and how to resolve errors using references, moves, and explicit lifetimes through clear, practical examples.
Build a production-ready SQL query engine in Rust with just 375 lines of code. Learn to parse SQL with custom dialects, convert AST between SQL and DataFrame operations, query CSV files from URLs, implement trait-based architecture for extensibility, and create Python bindings with PyO3. This advanced tutorial covers lifetimes, macros, pattern matching, and cross-language interoperability while building a real-world data processing tool.
