Rust Mentors

Our mentors are the human element behind Exercism, providing empathetic feedback on learners' solutions.

Alex Kavanagh https://github.com/ajkavanagh

Rust is a refreshing alternative to C, C++ and golang. I find it elegant, relatively concise and very interesting to use. I've not used in professionally, yet, but have many years of C, JavaScript and Python under my belt.

Andrew Radev https://github.com/AndrewRadev

Rust is a language that feels as comfortable as the next Ruby. While I can't say I'm an expert quite yet, I've taught a university course in it, so I hope I've picked up enough skill to help beginners out.

Maira Kodama https://github.com/mairandomness

Math teacher turned programmer. Fell in love with Rust while listening to Steve Klabnik talk about its design choices. Eternally grateful for helpful compiler messages. Not tall enough to write multi-threaded code.

Paul Otto https://github.com/potto007

I love Rust for its type-safety, its approach to memory management, and its helpful compiler messages. I currently use Rust in side projects, and I'm working towards getting Rust into use at work.

Sebastian Magri https://github.com/sebasmagri

I been using Rust both at work and as a hobby for a while now. Its an awesome project that makes it easy to learn and contribute, and improves really fast while remaining compliant with its principles.

Peter Tillemans https://github.com/ptillemans

I am an electronics engineer and language geek who learned programming on an hp-41 and C-64. Now I do mostly java, javascript, python, rust and haskell. I believe that code should sing its intent so the last row in the hall understands the last syllable.

Karthik Deepak Natraj https://github.com/karbfg10k

I love Rust and C and use them at my day job in automotive. I work with Embedded software but I'm also reasonably familiar with systems programming as well

Eric Dattore https://github.com/ELD

I've been playing with Rust as my hobby language of choice since version 0.10. Before that, I was using C++ for a lot of my side projects.

David Carroll https://github.com/axesilo

My primary professional language is Python, which I like for its flexibility and expressiveness, but I also enjoy using Rust because of its power and high-quality tooling. I'm a former CS professor.

Bert Proesmans https://github.com/Bert-Proesmans

I've spent a lot of time inside its documentation, on the users forum and IRC. I'm almost celebrating my first year of Rust development.

Alpha Shuro https://github.com/alphashuro

Rust empowers developers to write code that is ambitious, fast and correct. Viva Rust!

Yilkal Argaw https://github.com/yilkalargaw

An enthusiastic programmer who enjoys to explore various aspects of the computer industry. Worked on areas ranging from ASIC & FPGA based hardware design to Software Development in softwares like ruby, C, C++, perl,scheme, common-lisp and rust.

Matthias Wimmer Matthias' Blog

Using a mixture of C and Rust code at work for bare metal and linux embedded programming since mid 2017. Having done 10+ years of professional Java programming before. Also in love with Clojure, Haskell and functional programming in general.

Sherab Giovannini https://github.com/Shaddy

Rust is a revolutionary language that is growing and improving fast. I am proud to have been promoting Rust in my own company leading to incredible results. It covers low-level programming while offering high-level abstractions which for systems developers, it's a blessing.

Florian Gilcher Yakshaves, my personal snippet space

I'm a Rustacean since 5 years and member of the Rust project. I lead the events team and contirbute to the community team. I own a Rust company. I train Rust professionally, but still got a lot to learn.

Anthony Deschamps https://github.com/adeschamps

I use Rust professionally in my day job, as well as for some hobby projects. I like it for a lot of technical reasons, but most of all for the great community.

Emerentius https://github.com/Emerentius

I'm a physicist and hobbyist programmer. I've been a Rust enthusiast since shortly before 1.0. I love Rust for its speed and safety, its typesystem, clean design, cargo and overall focus on correctness that help me offload so much worry on the compiler.

Sam Scott https://github.com/samscott89

For me, Rust and Cryptography has been a perfect match. As I grow my own company, I plan on sticking with Rust and want to help encourage people to pick it up.

Stef Gijsberts https://github.com/Stef-Gijsberts

I love Rust and its community. The way the Rust compiler talks to the user makes me want to hug it.

Brooks J Rady thelostlambda.xyz

A functional programmer who loves Haskell, Lisp, Rust, and Elixir.

James Lao James' blog

I write mostly C# professionally, but I have a passion for functional programming and lately Rust. I look forward to helping you anyway I can!

Sven Steinbauer https://github.com/Svenito

I am a C++ and Python developer who is learning Rust. I feel that teaching is a great way to learn, so I am hoping to give back a little while learning more myself.

Brenton Alker github.com/tekerson

Rust brings an expressive type-system to low-level perfomance and portability. The WASM support ties in particularly well with web development where I spend most of my time and I'm excited to join others on this learning path.

Zachary Dremann https://github.com/Dr-Emann

It didn't take long for rust to become my favorite language, and I want to help others learn it, and love it like I do! I've been coding in rust since 2013, and it's been amazing seeing the language change and evolve over time, and become better and better.

weihanglo https://github.com/weihanglo

Aim to use Rust and WebAssembly in my daily routines. Love Rust because of its passionate and welcoming community.

Choon-Siang Lai (note (code cslai))

Writes Javascript/ES and Python at work, discovered Rust and find it expressive despite being a system langauge. Would love to contribute back by mentoring.

Caleb Boylan https://github.com/squidboylan

I am a student and spend most of my time hacking on personal projects. I enjoy Rust as it makes some of the more painful parts of programming easier to handle.

Thayne McCombs https://github.com/tmccombs

Although rust does have a steeper learning curve than many other languages, once you understand it, it is a truly incredible language.

Will Murphy https://github.com/willmurphyscode

I'm a former teacher, now an engineer at Pivotal. I'm passionate about learning new programming languages, and helping others learn.

Michael Morehouse https://github.com/yawpitch

Long-term programmer and pipline developer in the Visual Effects (VFX) community; recently decided it was time to make a change in life and become a polyglot; while Python remains my industry's go-to language, Rust, Go, and others are nipping at the heals, and I've never learned better than by helping others lean.
