Yes, it is that simple. In Rust if you have a structure Person and you want to allow testing equality between instances, you just add that bit of code before the struct definition as follows:

#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Person {
    name: String,
    age: u32,
}

In Rust, PartialEq and Eq are traits, which are similar to interfaces in Java. Manually implementing the PartialEq trait in this example would be writing code that returns something like a.name == b.name && a.age == b.age. This is pretty simple but with large data structures it can be a lot of boilerplate.

There also exist other traits such as Clone to allow creating a copy of an instance, Debug for getting a string representation of an object, and PartialOrd and Ord for providing an ordering. Each of these traits can be automatically implemented for a struct by adding #[derive(PartialEq, Eq, Clone, Debug, PartialOrd, Ord)] before it.

Derive macros are a godsend. There's macros to automatically implement serialization as well. Basically a Trait that can automatically be implemented when derived
