Rust Network Programming is your hands-on guide to leveraging Rust's unique power to build the backbone of modern web applications. This book takes you on a practical, project-based journey from the fundamentals of TCP/IP to developing, testing, and deploying production-ready web APIs.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to build the services that power the internet? Not just the websites, but the fast, resilient systems running behind the scenes. What if you could write code that handles thousands of simultaneous connections without breaking a sweat? What if that same code was also protected from the most common security vulnerabilities by the compiler itself?

This book tells that story. We start with a single, raw network connection and, step-by-step, build our way up. You won't just read theory; you'll forge a deep, intuitive understanding by building the very things you use every day, discovering the secrets to high-performance, concurrent design along the way.

What's inside:

This is not just a book—it's a workshop. Inside, you will master the art of network programming by building three key projects:

First, you'll build a raw TCP server from scratch to learn how data truly moves across the wire.
Next, you'll construct a fully concurrent, multi-client chat server connected to a persistent database, mastering async/await and shared state.
Finally, you'll develop a professional, high-performance web API using the modern Axum framework, the same way you would for a real-world product.

Along the way, you’ll learn to secure, test, and containerize your applications for deployment, giving you a complete, production-ready skill set.

Who it's meant for:

This book is for you if you're a developer with some programming experience—in any language—and you're ready to take the next step. It's for the Python or JavaScript developer seeking more performance, the Java or C# engineer curious about safer systems programming, and anyone who wants to learn Rust through a practical, hands-on, and exciting lens.

Stop choosing between speed and safety. The future of high-performance backend development is here. Pick up this book, open your editor, and start building the fast, reliable, and secure network applications you've always wanted to create.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.?

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
