Rust Foundation

Exciting news for developers in Barcelona 🦀 Rust Foundation Silver Member Mainmatter is bringing hands-on Rust training to the inaugural Upskilling Week by Mobile World Capital Barcelona. Mainmatter's "Learn Rust from Scratch" workshop runs across two afternoons at Cibernàrium 22@, facilitated by Magnus Markling : 📅 Monday, June 29 | 15:00-20:00 📅 Tuesday, June 30 | 15:00-20:00 No prior Rust experience needed, just a laptop and the desire to learn. By the end, you'll have a solid understanding of Rust, its standard library, and its testing and async capabilities. Attendees who complete the workshop will also earn a Rust Foundation Workshop Completion Badge via Credly: a publicly verifiable credential recognizing your investment in real Rust skills. ⭐️ The Rust Foundation works closely with Mainmatter and has a high degree of confidence in the quality of their training. And stay tuned... we have more news coming soon about how we're recognizing quality Rust training like Mainmatter's!

Open source projects depend on the maintainers who review, release, secure, and steward the infrastructure many teams build on. We’re proud to support the Rust Foundation's work. https://lnkd.in/dVpdYK_p

A few thoughts from Lori Lorusso (Rust Foundation Director of Outreach) on how OpenAI Developers joining the Rust Foundation and contributing additional funding will benefit people and projects across the Rust ecosystem: https://lnkd.in/g4XHaqFn #rustlang #openai #rustfoundation

[NEWS] Today, we're proud to announce that OpenAI Developers has joined the Rust Foundation as a Platinum Member: our highest tier. Alongside their membership, OpenAI has generously committed additional funding to programs supporting the Rust ecosystem, from key Rust Project goals to Foundation efforts that strengthen the libraries, tools, and infrastructure the community relies on. Every widely used programming language needs reliable tooling, scalable infrastructure, rigorous security, and people who can sustain it all. None of that can happen without this kind of support. Welcome, OpenAI! We’re glad to have you. https://lnkd.in/dVpdYK_p #rustlang #rustfoundation #openai

How do the organizations relying on Rust turn real-world experience into a constructive force for the language and its maintainers? The Rust Foundation’s new Rust Commercial Network (RCN) is the answer, where the companies running Rust in production work together and with the Rust Project to advance adoption. Our first public meeting is June 22 at 4pm UTC, and you're invited. No membership required to attend! Three ways to get involved:
 → Join the RCN channel on the Rust Project Zulip to follow along → Come to the June 22 meeting: → Apply to be a founding member by June 22 Read the full announcement for links and details: https://lnkd.in/gBTC49HA Thank you to our steering committee: Jess Izen (Amazon Web Services (AWS)), Scott McNew (Canonical), Vitaly Bragilevsky (JetBrains), Roxana Hadad, PhD (Processing Foundation), David Wood (Rust Project), Lori Lorusso (Rust Foundation) #rustlang #opensource #rcn #rustcommercialnetwork

This role was made possible for the #rustlang ecosystem with support from Alpha-Omega. https://lnkd.in/gzN4QzRq

The Rust Foundation now has a full-time AI Security Engineer in Residence dedicated to the Rust ecosystem, funded by Alpha-Omega 🔒 AI tooling can surface genuine vulnerabilities, but also plenty of false alarms. This role will use human-led and AI-assisted methods to catch real issues and shield maintainers from the noise. Welcome to Jacob Finkelman : Cargo team member since 2018 and maintainer of pubgrub-rs, the resolver powering uv.
