+## Compiling Rust programs
+To make compiling as easy as possible (and allow single-file solutions), I want to avoid using [cargo](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/). Rust programs can therefore be easily compiled with `rustc` by running the following command: `rustc <src-file>`. The resulting binary file can then be executed on linux by running `./main`.
