% The Neon Rust/Node.js Bridge
Neon is a Rust bridge to the [Node.js](http://nodejs.org) platform: an
API (and a set of tools) for implementing binary Node modules in
Rust. Neon makes it possible to write **fast**, **portable**, and
**parallel** modules with [Rust](http://www.rust-lang.org): a language
that makes systems programming safe and fun!
