I should point out I am still relatively new to Rust so you might know of better Rust implementations of the Rust code below. In fact, I would love feedback on how I could improve the Rust code (drop comments below or add pull requests to the demo code repo). Instead of best practice Rust, this is more of a guide on how to get up and running with Rust Cloudflare Workers where I share some of the Rust I have learned. That said I hope you can benefit from the post if you already know Rust but want to know how to get going with Rust Cloudflare Workers.
Rustlings — a collection of small exercises you can run through to improve your Rust. Consider this if you prefer a more practical approach to learning, rather than reading the book,
Reqwest and Serde are very powerful and you will probably use them a lot as you start using Rust Cloudflare Workers. See Reqwest docs as well as serde docs for more on how you can use them.

Cargo is the Rust package manager. To search for crates (Rust packages) try https://crates.io/. We won’t go into more detail on rustup and cargo here as you will probably find more complete information wherever you are learning Rust.
