+# Rust Earthly Build Containers and UDCs
+
+<!-- cspell: words rustup -->
+
+This repo defines common rust targets and UDCs for use with rust.
+
+## User Defined Commands
+
+### RUST_SETUP
+
+This UDC sets up a rust build environment.
+
+Rust build environments are locked to the `rust-toolchain.toml` file in the repo.
+This ensures that the version of the toolchain used is locked with the dependencies.
+
+#### Invocation
+
+In an `Earthfile` in your source repository add:
+
+```Earthfile
+example_rust_builder:
+    FROM +rustup
+
+    DO +RUST_SETUP --toolchain=./rust-toolchain.toml
+```
+
+This builder can then be used to build the projects source.
