I learned it combining the Book and Rustlings. There's a table in the exercises directory mapping the exercises to the chapters of the book, so I'd every day do the exercises for yesterdays chapter first before todays chapter to have some sort of spaced repetition. For more material, check out https://github.com/jondot/rust-how-do-i-start

You can try https://github.com/jondot/rust-how-do-i-start which contains things to try out that I've curated. Cross off things that don't work, and feel free to reach out if none of it work for you.

I highly recommend taking a look at this github repo, it has many projects and resources to help you!

If you aren't a complete beginner, then this github repo is VERY useful

This is mine but also incorporates things I wish I had when I started, and also recommendation from other people as well. https://github.com/jondot/rust-how-do-i-start

For example, a button click, where self.wnd is the parent window, looks like this:
