Recording of my session at iJS 2021 (https://javascript-conference.com/). Recorded on Oct. 28th, 2021

WebAssembly is currently one of the hottest trends in web development and Rust is the programming language leading the path to it. In this session, Rainer Stropek introduces you to the Rust programming language. He assumes that you are familiar with JavaScript and TypeScript. Rainer demonstrates Rust based on an end-to-end client-side example using WASM, Rust, TypeScript, and Webpack. Be prepared for a code-only, demo-heavy session.

You can find the code for the larger Wasm sample at https://github.com/rust-linz/rust-fun...
