rustlings

I think that's how it all started: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

> I'm usually very good at hitting the ground running, but I am just as much bad at "keeping the pace", i.e. diving deep into stuff At a beginner level, rustlings[1] is an excellent resource for following along with any book/tutorial and do relevant exercise to apply the concepts from the learning material. On a more higher level, I guess (re)implementing some tool that you use daily is another way to deep dive into rust. I suspect it's one of the reasons why we see an unusual number of "rewrite of x in rust" projects. [1]. https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

Surprised no one has mentioned another great and similar resource called Rustlings [0] (yes very punny name). You are given some files with todo statements which you'll need to fix and make the code compile and pass all the tests. It's an interactive way to learn which is what got me through learning Rust a few years ago. [0] https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

Zed is great, have been using it to do the Rustlings exercises and learn Rust: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings If you've been looking for an excuse to learn Rust, check it out.

If you prefer learning by doing, I recommend rustlings. Its a bunch of small exercises that roughly follow the content of the main rust book. https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

Rust also has something similar which is where I believe Zig drew inspiration from as well: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

i think you've found what i'm looking for! https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

Rustlings gives a great introduction to the language: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings Disclaimer: I write JavaScript

For newcomers, https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings is a good way to start.

Great! I found the rustlings exercises to be an invaluable resource when learning Rust way back when. This and the Rust Book were excellent. Above all else (and there is so much good stuff out there) I'd recommend those two resources. https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/index.html

Tell me you use Hacker News without telling me you use it hahahaha. But seriously, I'm not sure of any kind of material like this for Rust, but I believe that's because it's simply not needed since we already have "the book" [0], rustlings [1], and rust by example [2]. Honestly, learning Rust is just absurdly simple and straightforward if you have the motivation to do so, these guides are so good I don't see much of a good reason to develop different ones.

Today I built the SSO flow for an application at work, and I learned a lot significantly faster than I could by just searching because it was guided. The generated code had issues, but it felt a lot like rustlings [1]. At many points I felt that my solution and approach was akin to doing gradient descent, with ChatGPT giving me the direction and me doing backtracking to avoid overshooting (glossing what it missed).

The best way to start is probably Rust By Example https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rust-by-example/ and/or Rustlings https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings/ . The key is to do those exercises "the hard way" and get some familiarity with the mechanics of coding in Rust. Once you've done that, reading TRPL will make a lot more sense.

I haven't learned yet, but here are some resources posted here: Build a ray tracer in rust. Recomends the 'crab' book from Oreilly. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29791142 MAke a 2d game https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28861618 basic syntax: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25610741 and lastly: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings though i dislike the install method...
