What problem does it solve?

Rust's ownership model provides safety but requires discipline to design APIs and data flows. This skill collects practical patterns for safe ownership and borrowing, robust error handling, and efficient async runtimes in real-world systems. It also covers guidelines for unsafe code when necessary and how to keep boundaries clean.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Ownership and Borrowing patterns to ensure memory safety and performance in concurrent code
• Error handling strategies using Result, thiserror, and proper propagation
• Async patterns with Tokio and futures for scalable I/O-bound workloads
• Traits and Generics to enable modular, testable abstractions
• Builder pattern for configuring complex components
• Anti-Patterns and safe alternatives to common Rust pitfalls

Quick Start

Apply the patterns to a small module by refactoring ownership transfers, adding explicit error handling, and introducing a basic async workflow to observe safety and performance improvements.
