Rust State Machines: Orders, Approvals, Transitions, and Persistence

A practical two-hour session on Rust State Machines, focused on Orders, Approvals, Transitions, and Persistence. Rust is used as the implementation context while the core lesson stays on software engineering fundamentals, reliability, testing, and operational clarity.

Audience: entry-level and intermediate developers who want a practical engineering session, not a language tour.

Outcomes:

• Explain the practical boundaries of Rust State Machines
• Apply Orders in a small working example
• Apply Approvals in a small working example
• Apply Transitions in a small working example

Format: two hours with a short framing walkthrough, a concrete example, discussion of tradeoffs, and a closing checklist for practice.
