I always wanted to learn Rust ever since it was released, but just never got the time / pet project to actually do. Now, inspired by the book Optimizing Java: Practical techniques for improving JVM application performance to learn more about JVM internals I found myself searching for JVM implementations in Rust and stumbled upon Ben Evans' presentation from Devoxx conference 2019. It gave me enough information and motivation that I started this project.
With time, I'll add more features, documentation, test cases, etc.. The ultimate goal is to have a really simple, but working JVM that can execute most java programs, without too much concern on performance (at least in the first iteration).
