This video will give you a brief introduction to both the languages Golang and Rust. This Golang Vs. Rust tutorial will compare both languages on various parameters such as Performance, Concurrency, Memory Management, Security, Easiness to Code and Learn, Development Speed, Scalability, and Companies Hiring. Further, you will get insights into the cons of Golang and Rust.

2. What’s in it for you?
What is Rust?
Key Differences between
Golang and Rust
Cons of Golang
Cons of Rust
What is Golang?

3. What is Golang?
Golang is an open-source statically-
typed compiled language developed by
Google
It was designed by Robert Griesemer, Rob
Pike and Ken Thompson
It comes with goroutines, strong security, and
some standard libraries

4. What is Rust?
Rust is a multiparadigm, general-purpose
and a high-level
programming language
Graydon Hoare along with Dave Herman,
Brendan Eich, and others introduced the
language at Mozilla Research
Rust is focused on safety, stability,
performance and safe concurrency

5. Key Differences between
Golang and Rust

6. Performance
Performance
Rust has the upper hand in delivering
output over Go due to its great
runtime speed, but it lacks
compilation time
Go is better in compilation time but
lacks runtime speed

7. Concurrency
Concurrency
Rust was recently introduced with the
native syntax in the form of
async/await and guarantees memory
stability
Go uses goroutines to utilize CPUs
efficiently and handle multiple tasks
simultaneously

8. Memory management and Security
Security
Developers need to be attentive and be
aware of memory allocation else code
won't be compiled
Go offers various paradigms such
as memory allocation and
automatic garbage collection

9. Easiness to Code and Learn
Experience
Rust comes with a much steeper
learning curve than Go
While Go is relatively easier than Rust,
it has a steeper learning curve than
other languages like JavaScript and
Python

10. Development Speed
Speed
Rust provides with good runtime
speed over compilation speed
Good execution speed

11. Scalability
Scalability
Rust favors applications that
require speed such as game
development
Go the perfect programming
languages to develop
large-scale applications

12. Companies Hiring
Companies

13. Cons of Golang
Lack of manual memory
management
Sometimes difficult
to handle the errors
Few Libraries
and frameworks

14. Cons of Rust
Higher learning
curve
Low level
of monkey
patching support
The compiler can be
slow compared to
other languages
