Session
An informative guide to using the Rust programming language to support Python projects. This talk has two aims. Its first is to demystify Rust and show you a subset of the language that's far less intimidating that you may have been lead to believe. The second is to guide you through a set of decision criteria for considering supplementing your Python project with the language.
