cargo

Cargo is the official Rust Package Manager and build system that orchestrates fetching dependencies, compiling code, and distributing libraries.

• cargo new <name>: Creates a new Rust project directory containing a Cargo.toml manifest and a boilerplate “Hello, World!” source file
• cargo build: Compiles the project and its dependencies, placing the resulting artifacts in the target/ folder
• cargo run: A convenience command that compiles the code (if necessary) and immediately executes the binary in one step
