Learn how to integrate Rust code with Node.js in this 21-minute tutorial. Discover the process of packaging Rust libraries as modules that can be seamlessly called from JavaScript and Node.js, similar to ES6 modules. Explore the growing convergence between JavaScript and Node.js ecosystems and understand why the ability to utilize Rust from JavaScript will be crucial in the future. Begin with a simple "Hello World" example, progress to adding two numbers, and then delve into creating a Rust library. Learn how to package your application for dynamic languages like Python and JavaScript, and finally, execute your Rust library from within Node.js. No prior Rust knowledge is required, making this tutorial accessible to beginners and experienced developers alike.
