    :crab: Small exercises to get you used to reading and writing Rust code!

  • Clone the Rustlings repository locally and try solving as much as you can.

  • book

    The Rust Programming Language

  • Read the book, I don't think it's mandatory to do all of the exercises.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • command-line-rust

    Code for Command-Line Rust (O'Reilly, 2022, ISBN 9781098109417) https://learning.oreilly.com/library/view/command-line-rust/9781098109424/

  • You absolutely must write programs, preferably using tests to ensure you are creating correct and reproducible code. May I suggest starting with my book, Command-Line Rust (O'Reilly, 2022). All the code/data/tests are in https://github.com/kyclark/command-line-rust Note that there are branches showing how to use the 4.x version of clap (command-line argument parser) rather than the 2.33 that was current when the book was published.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
