Extending Developer Tools for Servo
Introduction
Rust
Rust is a general purpose, multi-paradigm<, compiled programming language developed by Mozilla Research.[11] It is designed to be a "safe, concurrent, practical language", supporting pure-functional, concurrent-actor, imperative-procedural, and object-oriented styles.<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_%28programming_language%29</ref>
Servo
