Neuware - Don’t rewrite from scratch! Improve your software speed and scalability by iteratively replacing performance-critical code with RustRefactoring to Rust helps you get the speed and reliability of Rust libraries, functions, and high-performance features without needing a complete rewrite of your codebase. In Refactoring to Rust you will learn to: • Create Rust libraries you can call from other programming languages • Integrate Rust functions with code in other languages • Use Rust’s ownership and borrowing system to write high performance code • Handle errors as values using Rust’s enums • Minimize unnecessary memory usage with Rust’s multiple string types • Boost performance with Rust concurrency and async event processing • Create Rust HTTP services Rust is designed to gradually replace other languages by integrating and decomposing existing code. Refactoring to Rust helps you take full advantage of this amazing feature, even if you’ve never coded in Rust before. You’ll learn practical code-mixing techniques like embedding Rust libraries into apps written in other languages. About the technology Upgrade your software without starting from scratch! By incrementally introducing Rust into your codebase, you can upgrade key features and improve the performance of almost any application. This book shows you how to create standalone Rust libraries, boost speed and stability by using Rust for concurrency, and create safe, memory-efficient low-level code. About the book Refactoring to Rust shows you exactly where and how to integrate Rust surgically into applications written in another language. You’ll start by reviewing Rust’s unique syntax and concepts, with special emphasis on unique language features like variable lifetime and ownership. Then, you’ll learn to use Rust to wrap dangerous code, call standard and custom Rust libraries, and even use WASM to run Rust in the browser. What’s inside • Create Rust libraries you can call from other languages • Handle errors as values using Rust’s enums • Optimize for memory efficiency • Boost performance with Rust concurrency About the reader For intermediate programmers. No Rust experience required. About the author Lily Mara is a software engineer focused on high-performance Rust applications. Joel Holmes is a software developer building cloud native applications. He is the Author of Shipping Go, and Co-Author of Go in Action, Second Edition.

Ship faster code without rewriting from scratch. Many developers hesitate to adopt Rust because of the perceived learning curve or fear of breaking trusted code. What if you could modernize performance-critical parts of your application without overhauling everything at once? By making small, targeted improvements, you can experience Rust’s speed, safety, and reliability right away, while keeping your existing systems stable and secure.
- Incremental refactoring: Modernize critical paths while keeping trusted code stable.
- Cross-language libraries: Call Rust from Python, JavaScript, or C for immediate speed gains.
- Ownership and borrowing guidance: Eliminate data races, improve memory safety, sleep better at night.
- Async and concurrency patterns: Process events at scale with predictable resource usage.
- Error handling with enums: Replace cryptic crashes with clear, composable error flows.
Refactoring to Rust by experienced engineers Lily Mara and Joel Holmes delivers a practical, language-friendly roadmap for adding Rust libraries to existing applications. The soft-cover, 300-page guide balances clarity with depth, making advanced concepts approachable.
Through concise explanations, runnable examples, and side-by-side comparisons, the authors show exactly where Rust outshines scripting and systems languages. Each chapter targets a real refactor, from FizzBuzz pattern matching to blazing-fast HTTP services.
By the final page, readers can build production-ready Rust plugins that slash latency, cut memory waste, and future-proof critical features. The result is safer, faster software delivered with confidence.
Ideal for intermediate developers who crave performance without a risky rewrite, especially Python, JavaScript, and C maintainers.
