Rust on Android and iOS

Emil and Passy quickly catch up on Google I/O 2019 before talking about developing libraries for Android and iOS in Rust, namely Stretch, Emil’s most recent Flexbox implementation. They talk about why Rust makes for a particularly compelling choice on mobile and where there’s still room for improvement.
