 Substrate is built using Rust, a modern type sound programming language.
 The Rust compiler minimizes the chances of errors getting into your code and produces binaries that run on most operating systems and WebAssembly targets.

 If you're new to Rust, keep in mind that this workshop isn’t about _learning_ Rust.
