Understand it, then run it
The Rust team released a program‑management update for the April 2026 cycle. It announces that the 2026 Project goals RFC has been accepted and that the team is now officially in the 2026 goals period. The update also notes that RustWeek will take place in Utrecht in May, and that the team has set up a new meeting schedule to reduce back‑to‑back meetings and long evenings. No code changes are described in this update.
Run it now
// This program demonstrates that there is no new language feature in this update.
// It simply prints a message confirming that the update contains only project
// management information, not code changes.
fn main() {
println!("No Rust code change in the April 2026 program‑management update.");
}
What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)
No Rust code change in the April 2026 program‑management update.
Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
