Former Mozilla employee Graydon Hoare initially created  Rust as a personal project. The first stable release, Rust 1.0 was released on May 15, 2015. Rust is a  multi-paradigm programming language that supports imperative procedural, concurrent actor, object-oriented and pure  functional styles, supporting generic programming and metaprogramming statically and dynamically.
