I want to start learning Rust. Where to start, where to get the base?

Question

Programming

Hello!
The thing is, I'm a JavaScript developer. But I was very interested in the Rust language, I started to get acquainted with articles about Rust, but there are a lot of incomprehensible terms. Perhaps there is some general literature without a strong tie in the language (I don’t want to learn the pros to learn Rust)?
Thank you!

Answer 2

I really liked the series of articles by Alexey Snastin "Rust - a new programming language" on the IBM website :
I recommend checking it out!

Answer 3

Russian translation of "The Rust Programming Language":
kgv.gitbooks.io/rust_book_ru/content

Answer 4

A good basic course, moderately interactive. rustbyexample.com
Some of the examples were out of date when I looked at it. But it wasn't a problem to fix.

Answer 5

A good lecture in Russian: https://tech.yandex.ru/events/meetings/java-party-... For me, the most difficult thing in this language is pointers, working with memory, lifetime annotations. This is what the lecture is about. However, he himself did not understand some points in it, he wrote to the author, but he did not answer - apparently, the question is too stupid. :)

Answer 6

I hope that these sources will be useful in the development of Rust. And then all the time I am engaged in a war with the compiler, and not writing code. With assembler and C ++ 15 years ago I fought even less

Answer 7

if doc.rust-lang.org/0.11.0/rust.html is unclear, then you are unlikely to be a "JavaScript developer".
