Rust for Blockchain Application Development: Learn to build decentralized applications on popular blockchain technologies using Rust

[User_166471]

​

Key Features​

• Implement peer-to-peer blockchain using the features of Rust​
• Use Rust to build dApps on popular blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, and NEAR​
• Optimize Rust code and enhance security updates to deploy blockchain to production​

Book Description​

Before Rust, blockchain developers didn't have a systems programming language that was fast, type-safe, and, at the same time, had stable and easy memory management. It has proven to be a boon for developers and works as the perfect solution for not only blockchain and protocol development but also dApp development.

This book emphasizes on demonstrating those solutions that can help blockchain developers productize decentralized applications using Rust, which is a complex language with a steep learning curve.

Our book starts with basic Rust concepts and then builds on these concepts to enable the reader to build their own blockchain from scratch. Later in the book, we will build dApps on popular chains like Solana and NEAR. We also build Ethereum dApps using Foundry (Rust) and finally build a custom blockchain using Substrate by Parity (Polkadot). This gives a complete 360-degree view of Rust in the blockchain ecosystem.

By the end of this book, the reader will have a thorough understanding of how to apply their Rust knowledge to building dApps and blockchains from scratch, which are skills that are required for some of the most high-paying jobs of this decade.
​

What will you learn?​

• Understand the necessary concepts of Rust required to build blockchain​
• Apply blockchain features like nodes and p2 communication using Rust​
• Understand and implement consensus in Blockchain​
• Build and deploy a dApp on Ethereum with the Foundry framework in Rust​
• Learn, build, and deploy a dApp on Solana and the NEAR protocol​
• Build a custom blockchain using the substrate framework by Polkadot​

Who is this book for?​

This book is for blockchain developers interested in building dApps on popular blockchains using Rust. In addition to this, Blockchain Architects, wanting to save time required to go through documentation and understand each technology can get a quick start with this book. The book has real-world examples and projects that will be a great addition to a developer's portfolio to showcase their knowledge. Readers are expected to have experience building applications on blockchain, and familiarity with Rust would be helpful.
