Aside from the usual recommendations of: The Rust Book and Rustlings.

I'd also recommend you try porting things you've made previously into rust. The amount of times I've ported something over and realised I could've done it better originally is too damn high.

    +1

    You have to learn by using it, build your train of taught around the language you're learning. I learned COBOL and forgot it even faster as soon as my head wasn't in the books, never practiced it, probably wouldn't even recognize it now.

    Yeah, probably easy to get lost in the weeds with a lower level language like Rust

    I suggest you watch this. TLDR is Use

    • "The Book"
    • Rustling
    • Rust by Example Most important get started.

    Non-tutorial suggestion: I've you're stuck, put a demonstration of your problem on the rust playground, post it here with the question. People in rustland are generally very willing to help out, and the playground is a very helpfull tool for that.

    I recommend the official rust book (aka the documentation. It's truly fantastic) followed by this actual book https://www.zero2prod.com/

    That combo not only taught me Rust concepts and the Rust "way" but also got me applying the knowledge in a way that gave me a lot of context. You don't need the zero2prod but I liked it more than any other paid books I've tried.
