Only narration | Next let us learn how to create and execute a Rust file. |
Open Visual Studio Code editor. | You may use any editor of your choice.
|
[Editor] Type:
println!("Hello World"); } |
In the code editor, type the code as shown. |
[Editor] Highlight:
fn main(){ } |
This is our main function. |
[Editor] Highlight: fn | The keyword fn is used as a syntax to create a function in Rust. |
[Editor] Highlight: main() | main indicated the name of the function.

Select Desktop on the left side | Select Desktop location. |
Point to Name >> type "hello-world.rs" | In the Name field, type the name of the file as hello-world.rs |
Highlight .rs | The extension .rs states that this is a Rust code file. |
Under Desktop >> Create MyRustProject folder | And then create a folder named MyRustProject. |
Point to MyRustProject | From now on, I will be saving my Rust files in this folder. |
Click on Save button. | Then click on the Save button at the top right corner of the dialog box. |
We have created a Rust file and have written the Hello World program.
| |
Switch to terminal | Switch back to the terminal. |
[Terminal] Type:
[Enter] |
Using cd command go to the location where the Rust file is saved.
|
[Terminal] Type:
