tour_of_rust VS rust-by-example

https://tourofrust.com/ is fun. Learning rust has a weird initial learning curve dealing with the aggressive analyzer/compiler and how you have to approach your variables, but after that initial hump it is one of the coziest languages I've used. Having what was initially a bit of a nag, is now a godsend when i'm getting red-squiggles in vscode for a typo in my SQL string for a misnamed column, or a field in my template was removed and so my struct shows how it's now unused.

1. 👶 Tour of Rust is a step-by-step guide for the Rust programming language. It gives a nice overview of the language and allows the learner to also modify the code examples to experiment.

Another good learning resource is the Tour of Rust, which is more hands-on than The Book. It has a code example (which you can edit and run directly) in every section.

The bonus by learning this way is that the Rust compiler gives amazing feedback allowing you to intentionally experiment by breaking the examples. https://tourofrust.com/ was my first superficial pass.

1. Tour of Rust is a step-by-step guide for the Rust programming language. It gives a nice overview of the language and allows the learner to also modify the code examples to experiment. I would say that the Tour of Rust is not a resource that you would rely on by itself.

I really liked https://tourofrust.com/ Helped me a ton.

Rust can feel a bit intimidating at first but once you start getting the hang of it, you will enjoy it a lot. It has a very well articulated documentation, which can be used as a good learning resource too. Some other resources for Rust include Rustlings and Rust-By-Example.

Rust by Example

Rust by Example: Collection of runnable examples, which many find useful to read

I think something went wrong there, I can find this (merged) PR with https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-by-example/pull/1679/files that has the first example collecting into a string, (which is obv less effective). It was merged 2 weeks ago. I dont know why it isnt online yet.

I more or less went straight from The Book (see also Rust by Example) to Learning Rust With Entirely Too Many Linked Lists and code::dive conference 2014 - Scott Meyers: Cpu Caches and Why You Care and I've often seen PNGme suggested as the next step after that.

The Rust By Example website is another helpful resource for learning Rust. It provides a series of interactive examples that demonstrate how to use various Rust features and libraries.

The book is great and was my original introduction to the language, but rustlings or Rust By Example might be more interesting for an interactive (and more self paced) approach.

Rust by Example: Rust by Example is a collection of runnable examples that cover a wide range of Rust concepts and standard libraries. It's a great way to see how Rust code works in practice.
