Haha, I appreciate the enthusiasm :) Please note however that despite 
the language being in, the compiler is still at an extremely early 
stage. We are still not able to properly compile Rust code in the 
version that we target, 1.49.

To do anything meaningful with the language, you will also need the core 
library, which again, we cannot compile yet in its 1.49 version.

This is very much an extremely experimental compiler and will still get 
a lot of changes in the coming weeks and months up until the release.
