@ -354,6 +354,18 @@ file, we would need to call `rustc` twice, and pass it a bunch of options to
tell it to build everything together. With Cargo, as our project grows, we can
just `cargo build` and it'll work the right way.
You'll also notice that Cargo has created a new file: `Cargo.lock`.
```{ignore,notrust}
[root]
name = "hello_world"
version = "0.0.1"
```
This file is used by Cargo to keep track of dependencies in your application.
Right now, we don't have any, so it's a bit sparse. You won't ever need
to touch this file yourself, just let Cargo handle it.
That's it! We've successfully built `hello_world` with Cargo. Even though our
program is simple, it's using much of the real tooling that you'll use for the
rest of your Rust career.
