Book Description
Save time, improve stability, and optimize program memory while building decentralized applications on a blockchain using the features and capabilities of Rust
Key Features
- Implement peer-to-peer blockchain using features of the Rust programming language
- Use Rust to build dApps on popular blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, and NEAR
- Optimize Rust code and enhance security updates to deploy a blockchain to production
- Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook
Book Description
Before Rust, blockchain developers didn’t have a systems programming language that was type-safe, fast, and, at the same time, had stable and easy memory management. Rust proved to be a boon for developers and works as the perfect solution for not only blockchain and protocol development but also dApp development.
Rust for Blockchain Application Development focuses on demonstrating solutions that can help blockchain developers productize decentralized applications using Rust, which is a complex language with a steep learning curve.
This book starts with basic Rust language concepts and then builds on these concepts to enable you to develop your own blockchain from scratch. As you progress, you’ll learn how to build dApps on popular chains like Solana and NEAR. You’ll also be guided through creating Ethereum dApps using Foundry (Rust). Finally, you’ll develop a custom blockchain using Substrate by Parity (Polkadot). The book provides a complete 360-degree view of Rust in the blockchain ecosystem.
By the end of this Rust book, you’ll have a thorough understanding of how to apply your Rust knowledge to building dApps and blockchains from scratch.
What you will learn
- Understand essential Rust concepts required to build blockchain
- Apply blockchain features such as nodes and p2 communication using Rust
- Understand and implement consensus in blockchain
- Build and deploy a dApp on Ethereum with the Foundry framework in Rust
- Develop and deploy a dApp on Solana and the NEAR protocol
- Build a custom blockchain using the Substrate framework by Polkadot
Who this book is for
This Rust programming book is for blockchain developers interested in building dApps on popular blockchains using Rust. Blockchain architects wanting to save time required to go through documentation and understand each technology can also use this book as a quick-start guide. Experience in building applications on blockchain is required, and familiarity with Rust will be helpful but not necessary.
