# The Rust Programming Language

This is the next iteration of “The Rust Programming Language”, which is
currently located [in the main Rust repository][src]. If you want to read the
book, you should check it out there or [on the web][prod].

[src]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/master/src/doc/book
[prod]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/

If you would like to see this version rendered, it’s [on GitHub pages][html].

[html]: http://rust-lang.github.io/book/

## Requirements

Building the book requires [mdBook]. To get it:

[mdBook]: https://github.com/azerupi/mdBook

```bash
$ cargo install mdbook
```

## Building

To build the book, type:

```bash
$ make
```

The output will be in the `book` subdirectory. To check it out, open it in
your web browser:

```bash
$ firefox book/index.html
```

To run the tests:

```bash
$ make test
```

To do both:

```bash
$ make all
```

## Contributing

I’m not going to be accepting major changes at first, but pull requests to fix
typos and such are welcome. Please file any issues for discussion of larger
changes.
