Introduction

All programming languages follow the basic building blocks each other. They all contain types, loops, control statements, functions and some form of object. In this article we will examine three small applications that can help you learn the in’s and out’s of any language.

Hello World

A hello world application is one of the simplest applications that a developer can create in any language. Most developers probably started with this application. While it is simple it does provide us with some of the base knowledge required to run more advanced programs at a later stage.

The first thing it teaches us, is how to setup an environment to run the language we are working with. For example with the Rust programming language we need to install Cargo in order to run the application, manage dependencies and build our code. For NodeJS we need to install a version of NodeJS and the npm package manager.
