awesome-ada VS book

At the moment we have * Reddit, a news aggregator, Awesome Ada link list, and they work good too. (Thank involved people for this!) * Organization/company based sites, and they work good (e.g. adaic.org, ada-auth.org, sigada.org, adacore.com) * Chats, comp.lang.ada "news group" * Wiki books * Ada Programming (Is it updated?) * Ada Style Guide (It looks like to be never updated since uploading) * person-driven sites are often biassed, become outdated and abandoned * For example, adapower.com, getadanow.com, learnadanow.com are not updated (e.g. no Alire mention), have expired SSL certificate and dead links. (Sorry David, it's just for example!). * long(?) list of dead or frozen sites * adahome.com - alive, not updated * adaworld.com - has changed owner * planet.ada.wtf not resolved * ancient Public Ada Library (PAL) gone * per country community is mostly alive * adaspain.org is't responding

I too are partial to the Ada (the person) logos. The modern takes in the awesome-ada site are my favorite. In particular the previous one was very cool: https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada/tree/f0e3df247119dd3730c4bda6cac0e0c3fd93087c

All libraries listed in awesome-ada added to Alire.

In order to find good examples for Ada, I think we should add all our projects to the curated list of awesome Ada resources. OK, it won't be curated if we add everything, but in fact it's far from being crowded. It can be curated later if it overgrows. In my opinion, both these projects (Dashera and Yotroc) ought to be included, and they aren't.

Depends on the libs, see [Awesome Ada][https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada]

If it's not in Alire, second step is looking in the curated list of Ada projects (and then follow README or BUILDING instructions): https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada

There are still many interesting projects in https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada and other sources, which are not indexed by Alire, so there is room for improvement.

In terms of bootstrapping your environment and getting started, I'd recommend looking at Vim-Ada and Awesome Ada. I also tried to write up some practical advice from my experience, which might be helpful.

On Awesome Ada list, you can find examples of Ada usage outside embedded development.

My first port of call was to google learn rust which lead me to "the book". The book is a first steps guide written by the rust community for newbies (or Rustlings as they're called) to gain a 'solid grasp of the language'.

Before Prodzilla, I’d read 'The Book' a couple of times, and had made my way through Rustlings, but hadn’t yet built a serious project in Rust.

To answer your last question;

Start with the Rust book.

https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/

Then do Rustlings until the syntax becomes muscle memory.

Then join the Discord and start doing little projects.

You won’t get up to the proficiency of other languages as quickly in Rust. It takes longer. For me it’s taking a lot longer, but I enjoy it.

Before diving into these repositories, familiarize yourself with Rust and its development ecosystem. The official Rust book is an excellent resource for developers at all levels. Each repository has documentation on how to contribute, covering code style, issue tracking, and pull requests.

This is my third Rust book after the official book and Rust in Action. The other two books are great, but they were too theoretical for me. I'm a slow learner and had much trouble grokking Rust's features and idiosyncrasies. When I was done with these books, I was lost and unsure of what I could do.

It's the same reason everything digital and downloadable isn't free: there's a cost to create it and there's a value to it.

For a language developer to charge for a book about that language, I think that's a completely valid way to make some money off of their work.

Even the Rust book, "The Rust Programming Language" is available freely online [0], but also as a print and ebook for sale via NoStarchPress [1].

You know you can just read it online right now in 2 different variants It does contain some systems programming.

I am looking at The Book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/), but hoped there was an amazing person on youtube.

Yeah, I'll build something, finally trying webassembly.
