Rust: Procedural Macros and Compile-time Code Generation
Master Rust’s procedural macros. This course will teach you to generate efficient, maintainable code at compile time, creating powerful, flexible libraries.
What you'll learn
Creating efficient, maintainable Rust libraries often involves repetitive code and complex APIs. In this course, Rust: Procedural Macros and Compile-time Code Generation, you’ll learn to harness procedural macros for powerful metaprogramming. First, you’ll explore writing and using derive macros to automate repetitive code generation. Next, you’ll discover attribute macros to design flexible, user-friendly APIs. Finally, you’ll learn how to optimize compile-time code generation for performance and maintainability. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of procedural macros needed to build efficient, scalable Rust frameworks and libraries.
