Our Most Loved Programming Language
According to Stack Overflow’s Annual Developer Survey, Rust has held the top spot for the most loved programming language for six years in a row (2016 – 2021) and the content of this newsletter attests to the interest in the language by the developers resident in Nigeria.
This month, we have four articles, a Rust crate, and a rust story on how Rust inspired a mission to grow developer talent in Nigeria.
