I've been wanting to learn Rust for awhile now. Looking for some resources for C++ devs.

The Rust documentation is a great place to start, especially the "Book" and "nomicon".

I've heard good things about the Rust book. How in-depth is it?

The Rust book covers everything from the basics to more advanced topics. It's definitely a must-read.

Thanks! I'll add that to my list. Is there any specific parts you recommend?

I'd also recommend the Rustonomicon, it's the Rust book's "black magic" counterpart!

Haha, sounds interesting. I'll check that out too.

Check out "The Rust Programming Language" book from the official website, great for beginners!

Yeah, I've heard about that one. Is it more beginner-friendly than the Rust book?

It's definitely more beginner-focused. The Rust book covers more advanced topics.

This Rust learn-by-example page is also a handy resource: <https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/>

You could also try "Rust for Rustaceans", it's a bit more advanced but still very approachable.

I'll add that to my list. I'm looking for both beginner and advanced resources.

There's an excellent Udemy course by Steve Smith, covers Rust from beginner to advanced.

I'll check that out! Thanks for the suggestion.
