The rustlings are little exercises you run in the terminal (works on Linux, Windows and in Browser apparently). I did some of them when I started out but much rather I'd recommend working through The Book. It explains everything in great detail and often has some exercises at the end of each chapter. What I did was reading through it and with every concept or code snippet that I didn't immediatly understood I ran it and/or changed it up a little to see what exactly was happening. At the same time I always was always working at some mini project in rust that used the concepts I just learned (something like a head or tail clone or a program that adds two numbers or a number guessing game, snake with ansi escape codes, stuff like that). In general you want to do way more programming than reading, because that's what makes you remember the things you'll learn.
