# The Rust Programming Language
Rust is a systems programming language that is fast, memory safe and
multithreaded, but does not employ a garbage collector or otherwise
impose significant runtime overhead.
Rust is a fast systems programming language that guarantees
memory safety and offers painless concurrency ([no data races]).
It does not employ a garbage collector and has minimal runtime overhead.
This repo contains the code for `rustc`, the Rust compiler, as well
as standard libraries, tools and documentation for Rust.
[no data races]: http://blog.rust-lang.org/2015/04/10/Fearless-Concurrency.html
