Installation
Rust Setup
All crossbow crates are written in Rust. This means that before we begin, we need to set up our Rust development environment.
Installing Rust
Install Rust by following the Rust Getting Started Guide.
Once this is done, you should have the rustc compiler and the cargo build system installed in your path.
Rust Learning Resources
The goal of this book is to learn crossbow, so it won't serve as a full Rust education. If you would like to learn more about the Rust language, check out the following resources:
- The Rust Book: the best place to learn Rust from scratch.
- Rust by Example: learn Rust by working through live coding examples.
