I can second that. I've been using the Rust WebAssembly book as well, and I've learned a lot about both Rust and WebAssembly. It's a definite recommendation from me.

I would recommend starting with the Rust and WebAssembly book, and going through the exercises slowly. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you get stuck. There's a really friendly and helpful community of Rust and WebAssembly developers out there who are more than happy to help.

I'd recommend taking it slow and focusing on one thing at a time. It can be overwhelming at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's really rewarding. Good luck, and don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions!

I've created a free online course that covers the basics of Rust and WebAssembly, and I'd love to share it with the community. It's designed for beginners, and it covers everything from setting up your development environment to building and deploying your first Rust and WebAssembly application. You can check it out at <https://rust-webassembly.com>.

If you're looking for more advanced resources, I recommend checking out the Rust WebAssembly Working Group's documentation. It's written for people with some experience in Rust and WebAssembly, and it covers a lot of the more advanced topics and techniques.

I've been using Rust and WebAssembly together for a while now, and I have to say, it's a really great combination. The Rust language provides a lot of safety and performance benefits, and WebAssembly lets you deploy your code to the web with ease. Highly recommended!

I'm not familiar with Rust and WebAssembly, but I'm interested in learning more. Can anyone recommend any good resources for beginners?
jane_doe 1 year ago next
I definitely recommend the Rust and WebAssembly book. It's a great introduction to both Rust and WebAssembly, and it covers all the basics you need to get started. It's also really well written and accessible, so it's a good choice if you're new to both of these technologies.

If you're looking for more hands-on learning, I recommend checking out the WASM-bindgen documentation. It provides a lot of examples and exercises that can help you get a feel for how to use Rust and WebAssembly together. It's also really in-depth, so it's a good resource if you want to learn more about the nitty-gritty details.

I'm curious, what are the benefits of using Rust and WebAssembly together? Why should I consider using them instead of something else?
jane_doe 1 year ago next
There are a few reasons why you might want to consider using Rust and WebAssembly together. First, Rust is a very safe language, which means that it helps prevent common programming errors and security issues. This is especially important when building applications that run on the web, where a small mistake can have serious consequences. Second, Rust is a very fast language, which means that it can help improve the performance of your web applications. And third, WebAssembly makes it easy to deploy your Rust code to the web, so you can reach a wide audience without having to worry about compatibility issues or other technical details.

Another benefit of using Rust and WebAssembly together is that it allows you to use Rust's powerful type system and other features to build high-performance, web-based applications that are more reliable and secure than traditional JavaScript-based applications. It's a great combination if you're looking to build high-performance, web-based applications that you can trust.
learningrust 1 year ago prev next
In addition to the benefits that Jane and CoderPro mentioned, using Rust and WebAssembly together also allows you to take advantage of Rust's strong community and ecosystem of libraries and tools. This means that you'll have access to a lot of powerful and well-maintained libraries and tools that can help you build better, more robust applications. It's a great way to boost your productivity and make your development process more enjoyable.

Another benefit of using Rust and WebAssembly together is that it allows you to use Rust's powerful macro system to build reusable, modular code that is easier to maintain and extend over time. This is especially important for web-based applications, where the codebase can quickly become complex and difficult to manage. By using Rust and WebAssembly together, you can build applications that are more maintainable and easier to work with, which can save you time and frustration in the long run.
