C-Side Tourism: Using C libraries from Rust
Access Notes
You'll need to check in with the Mozilla office front desk, on the third floor. The elevators lock at 6pm, but when there's an evening event scheduled, they should stay open until 7pm.
Mozilla is on the block across NW 11th St from Powell's City of Books on Burnside. Entrance is by Peet's Coffee on Couch St. Take the elevator to the third floor. Around the corner, there's a glass door with a big Mozilla logo on it. We're Suite 320.

Description
There's a wild world of C software out there just waiting to serve a Rustacean's needs, but the terrain can be rocky and unfamiliar. Even if you're already comfortable with Rust, C, or both, wrapping C libraries with FFI can be tricky to navigate.
This month, Owen Nelson (@theomn) will recall some of the sights he saw on his recent visits to the C-Side. Hopefully, once you've seen some snapshots of the local landmarks, you'll be encouraged to take a trip of your own!
