## Hello world Check Rust version ``` rustc --version ``` Create new project folder ``` cargo new my_example cd my_example ``` The new project is created together, with hello-world app in `src` sub-folder ``` cat src/main.rs ``` Compile it ``` cargo build ``` And then run it ``` ./target/debug/my_example ``` We can also compile and then run it, all in one step ``` cargo run ``` ## Rustup A toolchain is a specific version of the collection of programs needed to compile a Rust application. It includes, but is not limited to: - The compiler, rustc - The dependency manager and build tool, cargo - The documentation generator, rustdoc Rustup provides ways to install, remove, update, select and otherwise manage these toolchains and their associated pieces. Install specific version of Rust toolchain ``` rustup install 1.30.0 ``` Show toolchains ``` rustup show ``` Change default toolchain ``` rustup default 1.30.0 ``` ## Project with dependencies Cargo is also the Rust package manager. It is a tool that allows Rust packages to declare their various dependencies and ensure that you’ll always get a repeatable build. Clone example repo ``` git clone https://github.com/rdesarz/rust-http-server.git cd rust-http-server ``` Build and start the server ``` cd example cargo run --package http-server --bin http-server 0.0.0.0:8030 ``` You will see that before cargo builds the package, it installs all the dependencies from the file `Cargo.toml`.
