Memory Safety Everywhere with Both Rust and Carbon
This talk will compare and contrast some of the interesting differences in the approaches taken in Rust and what we’re exploring in the Carbon Language experiment. Carbon was created to find out what a maximally incremental path to evolve and migrate off of C++ and onto a programming language with memory safety might look like, and whether it would be an effective way to bring memory safety to the largest-scale and most-brownfield of C++ software ecosystems.

Fine-Grained C++ Interop
Adopting Rust in large C++ projects presents a difficult choice: perform a costly, large-scale rewrite, or refactor code to accommodate the limitations of traditional interop solutions such as bindgen or cxx. This talk will discuss how high-fidelity Rust/C++ interoperability can offer a seamless path for gradual adoption using language and compiler extensions.
