Memory safe software is being pushed as the way of the future – but has a heavy legacy. The limitations of #C++ have become clear in today’s #data-driven landscape and there are new languages that can solve these problems. This talk will focus on how #Rust can modernize the tech stack without requiring a full rewrite.
Til Adam of @KDABtv and Florian Gilcher of @FerrousSystemsGmbH discuss the features of Rust, what pitfalls and challenges can stall a successful implementation, and how it can

The future is memory-safe programming – so what’s stopping the Rust takeover? Our panel featuring Michał Fita, James Munns ( OneVariable UG), Steve Klabnik (@oxidecomputercompany3992) and moderated by Florian Gilcher (@FerrousSystemsGmbH) talk about company uncertainty to the Rust Foundation and what developers can do to push Rust adoption for innovation.

The Rust environment has seen a lot of growth in all areas. It lead to visible friction and public conflict that may be hard to understand for people, particularly those that are new to Rust.
That begs a number of questions: Is this normal? Is this special to Rust? Just growth pain? Or something deeper? And whatever the answers are - to which level should individual community members care?
This talk sums up many discussions of worry and hope I had over the last months. It acts a both a summary of the past, but above all make you more competent for the conversations about the future of Rust that are ahead of us.
🦀 *About Florian Gilcher* 🦀
Florian Gilcher (https://twitter.com/Argorak) is one of the co-founders and management directors of Ferrous Systems. Previously, he was part of the Rust project, as part of the community and core team, and a co-organiser of the Rust Berlin Meetup and the RustFest conference.
His current driving motiviation is bringing Rust to the industry, currently to the industries of highest assurances, for example automotive and aerospace. For that, he’s currently leading the Ferrocene project - the qualification of the Rust project to highest assurances.
async/await will be stabilised around RustFest Barcelona. This talk gives an overview of the existing ecosystem by then as well as practical guidance on how to use the feature. It puts a focus on modern async programming instead of comparisons with the past. For exemplary purposes, I will use async-std, a library built from the ground up around std::futures::Future and the modern async model.
In this panel, join Till Adam of @KDABtv at Oxidize Conference, talking about the interoperability of Rust and C++. Featuring Olivier Goffart (Slint), Stefan Nürnberger (@veecle_software ) and Nicolas Fella (KDE), and Leon Matthes (@KDABtv).
